Diocesan Choir

Diocesan choir is composed of singers who enjoy ministering the gift of music for special masses held within our diocese. We are the music ministry for the Rite of Election Mass, the Chrism Mass, and any Ordinations, Farewells, etc.

The choir is directed by Colleen Murphy-Beresh, accompanied by Pam Pander - piano, Ken Neitz - organ and various professional musicians from the community.

New members are always welcome!
