Music Ministry News Fall 2024

October 8, 2024 8:36 AM

Our parish choirs have begun rehearsals for the 2024-2025 season.

    Adult Choir rehearsals have begun. We practice Wednesdays at 7pm in the church. The Adult Choir sings at the 9am mass on the first, third, and occasional fifth Sunday of each month. There are no auditions - if you can sing on pitch, you are welcome to join.

      Youth Choir rehearsals have begun. We practice Thursdays at 4:30pm - 5:30 pm in the church. The Youth Choir sings at the 9am mass on the second and fourth Sunday of each month. The Saint Kateri Youth Choir provides an opportunity for young singers in grades 2nd through high school to learn proper and healthy singing technique, choral music reading skills, and the art of singing in harmony, all while giving praise to God. Please note that young children need to be able to read, sit for mass and pay attention during our weekly 1 hr. rehearsals.

      If you are in high school, parish choirs are great places for you to improve your sight-reading skills and be a leader. We can be flexible with your schedule, too, if you need that.

      Not sure if choir is for you? Come sit in at a rehearsal commitment free! For questions email Nina Ricci, Music Director, at nina.ricci@saintkaterimusic.org or speak to her after mass.

March 30, 2021 9:12 PM

The St Kateri Music Ministry will be providing the meals for Hillcrest House on Saturday, April 17, 2021. As a result of this pandemic, we are not serving hot food. Rather, volunteers are needed to make individual sandwiches for up to 100 people and put in individual lunch bags with a snack and dessert. The brown bags will be brought to the shelter. We can also use cases of individual water bottles for the shelter. Please consider helping out by preparing a sandwich, including dessert and snack for the adults at Hillcrest House; or providing a case of water. The meals are to be put in a bag and labeled with its contents and brought to St. Kateri (in front of parish office building) between 2:30 and 2:45pm on April 17, 2021 to be loaded into cars.

Update from Fr. Pancrose at https://saintkateriparish.com/

March 23, 2020 1:08 PM

My dear Parish Family,
My love, service and prayers to all to be safe and healthy. It is already the second week we are not able to gather as parish family to celebrate the Holy Eucharist. I offer every day Holy Eucharist united with you. God will help us. But I miss you. I have been trying to communicate with you through flock note and parish email system. So far I am not able to reach out to the Parish Faith Formation children, families and Catechists directly through the faith formation email system. I have forwarded my prayers for you and any important information from the Archdiocese to Deacon John McCormack and Diane McCoach to pass on to you. I am in touch with the Archdiocese and forward all information I receive through these means. I wish we could telecast the Mass from our Church. At present we can't. But already you have been informed of all available sources to view the Mass at home. Keep up with them and share them with all in your family and friend circles. I am here for you. I keep our Church open from 8 am to 8 pm for personal prayer and during our regular Mass times I keep the Blessed Sacrament exposed. Do not hesitate to approach me for any need. Let us sustain one another with faith, hope and love.

Fr. Pancrose

Do you miss being in the company of Jesus?
Please be aware that churches are open during the day and the Blessed Sacrament is present to allow us to be in the Presence of Jesus as we pray.

MASSES CANCELED IN ARCHDIOCESE OF NEW YORK
In light of the continued concern surrounding the coronavirus, and the advice of medical experts, all Masses in the Archdiocese of New York will be canceled beginning March 14-15, 2020.
This development follows upon today's decision of Dutchess County to prohibit gatherings of more than 20 people. It is also intended to provide clarity and consistency throughout the ten counties that comprise the Archdiocese of New York (Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island, Westchester, Putnam, Orange, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster, and Dutchess).
Churches will, however, remain open for private prayer.
Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York, urged the faithful to remember in their prayers all those whose lives have been impacted by the coronavirus outbreak. "Let us pray for all who are sick, as well as doctors, nurses, caregivers, and all those working hard to combat the disease. We should also remember those whose lives have been otherwise disrupted, especially anyone who has lost income from a loss of work during this time."
Daily Mass will be celebrated in Saint Patrick's Cathedral, and will be available on many cable systems via the Catholic Faith Network and its website here, livestreamed on the Saint Patrick's Cathedral website here, and broadcast on radio on The Catholic Channel of Sirius XM (Channel 129).
