Choristers March Update

Ash Wednesday, March 9 is our last meeting before Spring Break. 
  • Choristers, please bring your Voice for Life workbooks (some new members may not have them yet; see Choristers page).
  • As usual we will finish Vespers (Evening Prayer at 5:20 p.m.  PLEASE NOTE:  If you are going to be later than 5:20 p.m. in picking up your child on Ash Wednesday, you will need to meet them in the Choir Loft.  Miss Franklin and I are both serving at the 5:30 p.m. Mass and will be unable to maintain a safe environment beyond the normal pick-up time on this day.
Choir will resume on Tuesday, March 22.
  • This marks an intense, four-week push toward Holy Week.  Please make attendance at Tuesday sectional rehearsal and Wednesday full rehearsal an extra-high priority during this time.
  • Student will receive at this time a rehearsal CD to help them to prepare music in advance of rehearsals.
