St. Francis Xavier Cathedral Children Choir


Introduction

The Children's Choir was started because of the need to develop the children of our Church in positive ways, to make a contribution to our society and because of the need to provide opportunities for them to grow and develop their talents.

Mission

Our goal is to provide  a group music experience which will teach the children the importance of music as a ministry in the Church. It is designed to help the children to develop musical skills and appreciation and to develop the discipline necessary to conduct themselves in a manner that is exemplary. It also seeks to mold them into productive members of the Catholic community and to the society as a whole.

Ages and Skills Level

  • The age guideline for participation is approximately six (6) years or as soon as the child is able to read and to sit through a Mass without interruptions.
  • There is no age limit.
  • The choir welcomes all unchanged voices from six.
  • No prior choir experience is necessary.
  • No auditions are held.
  • All are encouraged to attend.
  • The only requirement is that each child must be a member of the C.C.D. Programme.

A willingness to make a joyful noise is expected.

Rehearsal Schedule

Rehearsals take place one per week. The allotted time for the rehearsal is on Friday from 6 to 7:30 pm. This time may change periodically. Whenever this happens, parents will be notified of the change. Regular participation at ,asses is expected.

  3. Parking of Vehicles outside the eastern wall

    Parishioners are reminded that it is an offense to park your vehicles outside the eastern wall of the Church's property.  When parked in this area, your vehicles cause the obstruction of traffic which can lead to a serious accident occurring at this junction.  Vehicles found parked in this no-parking area will be towed at the owners expense.
