Sunday XXV, and Cantate Domino

CANTATE DOMINO

Cantate Domino is Latin for Sing to the Lord.  You've often heard that beginning of Psalms 96 (95) and 98 (97), Cantate Domino canticum novum, that is, Sing to the Lord a new song.

Last year I used the theme Glorify the Lord with me (from Psalm 34 (33)) as what I was hoping to be motivation for a few voices to come re-start our parish choir.  Well, this year I'm going to use Cantate Domino.  We're looking for voices of all ranges to re-start our parish choir and SING TO THE LORD!

Rehearsal time: 10 AM
Mass time: 11:15 AM

See the bulletin for details, and me (after any weekend Mass) about joining us.
