Music Ministry

 

The power of sacred music increases the honor given to God by the church in union with Christ, its Head. Sacred music likewise helps to increase the fruits which the faithful, moved by the sacred harmonies, derive from the holy liturgy.”

  – Taken from Encyclical of Pope Pius XII on                                               Sacred Music
