2nd Annual Veteran’s Day Concert

We had a wonderful turnout last year and many requests to make this an annual event. It was a beautiful night of music, honoring those brave men and women who are currently serving or have served our country. We will be hosting the choirs of Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College  at Perkinston, under the direction of Mr. Brandon Ring. Our adult, teens and children’s choirs will all be participating as well. We invite anyone from our various music ministries or from our congregation to join us in song. There will be a practice scheduled posted soon. If you are not currently part of our music ministry but would like to join us for this amazing
opportunity please call or email Cherie at 228-365-4017 or cmprentiss@att.net

Our Children’s Choir is resuming in September with a few new changes. First, we are extending the age of participants. Our choir was for children ages 4-12. It will now be open to children ages 4-14. We will still sing once a month at the 11:00 mass. We may have some additional performances throughout the year for some special events.  Our practices will now be on Tuesday evenings from 5:15-6:15. When we are preparing for special events we may extend the practice time. Once a child reaches the age of 15 they are welcome to sing with our Lifeteen music ministry or our Sunday morning adult choirs. I am so blessed by the beautiful singers that we have and very happy that they desire to continue to share their special gifts with our parish. If you are new to our parish and would like to join any of our music ministries please contact me or just come to a scheduled practice. Thanks as always for the endless support you give to all our music endeavors!    God Bless!  Cherie
