Choristers May Update

Last Rehearsal & Party
According to our Choir Calendar, Wednesday, May 4, is to be our last rehearsal for the year.  Since we have two liturgical events yet to sing for, I would like to invite all Choristers back next Wednesday, May 11, for a season wrap-up and celebration, including a concluding prayer and refreshments.  We will meet at the usual time (4:10-5:20 p.m.)

Mother's Day Mass
Sunday, May 8
9:30 am Warm-Up/Rehearsal (Choir Room - East door open at 9:15 am)
10:30 am Mass
     ATTIRE: SUNDAY BEST (no jeans, t-shirts or gym shoes)

Confirmation (with Archbishop Naumann)
Monday, May 9
6:00 pm Warm-Up/Rehearsal (Choir room - East door open at 5:45 pm)
7:00-9:00 pm Confirmation Mass
NOTE:  We are estimating the "outside" length of Confirmation.  Those attending the liturgy may pick up their children in the Choir Loft at the end of Mass.  Others may pick up their children at the East door of Fr. Porter Hall.  Children will need to check-out with parent supervisor before departing.

June Ad hoc Choirs
Because Easter is so late this year, all of the important Springtime feasts fall in June:  Ascension, Pentecost, Trinity Sunday and Corpus Christi.  All choristers, youth choir members, and adult singers are invited to sing on any one or more of these Sundays, attending the Wednesday evening rehearsal before a given Sunday.  Perhaps this is something you'd like to do as a family!  See the Calendar for dates and times.

Choir Registration for 2011-2012
Places in the choir will continue to be limited to 24.  Preference will be given to returning choir members in good standing.  Stay tuned for more information.
