Throughout the year other events occur at which our parish's Music Ministry and its volunteers are called upon to share their talents. Examples include LifeTeen events, Parish sponsored pot luck dinners, recognition events for clergy and parishioners, and, of course, Holy Week, Easter and Christmas seasons. The links below will take you to the Young Peoples Choir for Christmas 2006 and there is a link to the Children's Choir page.

St. Cecilia

St. Cecilia's memorial is Nov. 22. She was a cultivated young patrician whose ancestors loomed large in Rome's history. She vowed her virginity to God, but her parents married her to Valerian of Trastevere. She told her new husband that she was accompanied by an angel, but in order to see it, he must be purified. He agreed to the purification, and was baptized; returning from the ceremony, he found her in prayer accompanied by a praying angel.

The angel placed a crown on each of their heads, and offered Valerian a favor; the new convert asked that his brother be baptized.

During the persecutions, the two brothers gave proper burial to martyrs. In their turn they were arrested and martyred for their faith. Cecilia buried them at her villa on the Appian Way, and was arrested for the action. She was ordered to sacrifice to false gods; when she refused, she was martyred in her turn (circa 117).

The Acts of Cecilia has the following: "While the profane music of her wedding was heard, Cecilia was singing in her heart a hymn of love for Jesus, her true spouse." It was this phrase that led to her association with music, singers, and musicians.
