Music is an essential part of the liturgical life of the parish. Saint Augustine says, “The one who sings, prays twice.” If you feel a strong call to share your faith through the giving of your time and talent to our music program, there are multiple opportunities available.

• Our choirs sing on Sundays at Mass from September through May. There is one rehearsal during the week and a review of the music on Sundays half-an-hour before Mass begins.

• Volunteer cantors intone the Psalm and support congregational singing at Sunday Masses. The cantoring schedule is flexible and issued on a monthly basis. An audition is required.

• Instrumentalists that play on an “as needed” basis are welcome throughout the year.

Every week, our music ministers post recordings and information on the weekend music on the Music Corner: a website dedicated solely to the music program at the Southeast Rochester Catholic Community. Please visit https://serccmusiccorner.weebly.com/ to learn more about our music offerings.

We take pride in our historic and valuable instruments at SERCC. Visit this Google folder https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1GcDT890fxN6OSI4aMI19FRVxPw4ntOoB
to find documents, photographs, and histories of each organ.
