Introduction

Welcome to the new website for the Sacred Music program at St. Ignatius and St. Mary! Here, you will learn:

  • sound, no-nonsense Catholic Church teaching about proper sung prayer to God in the Sacred Liturgy;
  • the parts of the Sacred Liturgy that are to be sung by the priest, choir, and faithful;
  • resources for singers and non-singers to learn the basics of music and sung prayer at their leisure; and
  • opportunities for singers and instrumentalists of all skill levels to render fitting worship to the Lord using their divinely given talents.

As this website is under construction, please check back often for new additions!
