Music Ministry



Music (especially song) is a core feature and expression of our humanity. When experienced in worship, it offers us repeated opportunity to engage in the “full, active & conscious participation” to which the liturgical reforms of Vatican II call us. Music Ministry at Saint Thomas More acts as servant to our liturgies – offering diversity in expression and experience for the purpose of building up the Body of Christ.
