Music is an essential element in the life of St. Anthony’s Parish. Because of this, we want to encourage participation from all people who feel called to give of their time and talents in the effort to enrich the worship experience at Masses and prayer services throughout the year. Vocalists and skilled instrumentalists comprise this ministry. Regular attendance at parish liturgies and rehearsals are crucial for each music minister’s tasks and a required commitment for all musicians.If you have any questions about the music ministry, we encourage you to reach out to Kayleen Roussin, our Music & Choir Director whose information is located at the bottom of this page.

CHRISTMAS ENSEMBLES
Due to safety precautions during the pandemic, our singing is very limited. However, we still wish to worship the Lord with song! We are looking for instrumentalists that would like to volunteer to be part of our Christmas Ensembles that will be taking place at our different masses. We will begin rehearsing in December during the week up until Christmas. If you are interested in sharing your gifts, please email our Music Director, Kayleen Roussin at k.roussin@stanthonyparish.net.
Parish Choir
The parish choir is the primary vocal ensemble at St. Anthony of Padua and performs weekly at the 11:00 a.m. Sunday Mass (September through June), as well as special celebrations throughout the year. We invite all adult and teenage parishioners to participate; no previous experience is necessary. As a choir, we embrace a wide range of musical styles from chant to contemporary. Join us for our rehearsals on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m.
Family Mass Choir
The Family Mass Choir sings weekly at the 5:00 p.m. Sunday Mass. The instrumentation of this choir is piano and guitars. We embrace the Traditional Hymns, but also take selections from the Contemporary Catholic and Christian Composers of today. Rehearsals are Sunday evenings directly following the 5:00 p.m. mass..
St. Anthony's Hispanic Children's Choir
Our Hispanic Children's Choir sings every third Sunday of the month at the 2:00 PM Sunday Mass. They rehearse on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 p.m..
Cantors
Our cantors lead the congregation in hymns and responses during weekend Masses and sometimes sing at funerals and weddings as well. We couldn’t get by without the beautiful contribution of these faithful singers!
