The Resurrection Choir is a group made up of volunteers from the parish who wish to share their musical talents during funeral liturgies. 

This group gathers 30 minutes before each funeral liturgy, practices once a month, and will sing the hymns chosen by the family for the liturgy. Funerals will be communicated to the members of this choir by email. 

Attendance at every funeral is not required to be a member of the Resurrection Choir. Come when you can and lend your voice! If interested, please contact Paul Szczerowski, Music Director (contact information at bottom).

Become a Leader in Worship – Join Our Cantoring Ministry!

If you have a strong voice and a heart for worship, our Cantoring Ministry needs you! Cantors play a vital role in our liturgies by leading the congregation in song, helping to create a prayerful and uplifting atmosphere during Mass.

 This is a wonderful opportunity to deepen your faith and connect with the community through music. With guidance and support, you'll grow as both a singer and a spiritual leader.

 If you’re ready to take your place at the front of the church, consider becoming a cantor today! Contact Paul Szczerowski either at 202-489-7073 or pzero@icloud.com
