The musical legacy of the Church is a priceless spiritual, artistic, and cultural heritage. We are attempting to follow the wishes of the Church by presenting beautiful Sacred Music in the context of the Sacred Liturgy for which it was composed.

We are thankful for the dedicated members of our parish who serve in our choirs at Epiphany, bringing beautiful music to our church.

Our Choirs:

Children’s Choir– For all children in grades 4th–8th

Prep Choir– Open to all parishioners interested in developing vocal skills and learning about the Mass

Adult Choir– For those with choral experience

Spanish Choir– Serving the 12:30 PM Sunday Mass

The Children’s Choir sings at several 9:30 AM Sunday Masses, the Prep Choir sings at Saturday evening Masses, the Adult Choir sings at the 11:00 AM Sunday Mass, and the Spanish Choir sings at the 12:30 PM Mass. All ensembles also come together to sing for special Masses and concerts throughout the year.

Join a group that joyfully fulfills the purpose of sacred music. Be part of a community that experiences the beauty of the Catholic Church’s rich musical tradition.
