Mass for Father Ben

The combined Parish, Bell and Teen choirs sang and rang Father Ben's favorite music for a Farewell Mass on Jan. 24.  Included in the Music Menu were:  Be Not Afraid, Here I Am Lord, Ave Verum,  Mozart's Alleluia, and Go Make a Difference. Thank you, Father Ben for your priestly ministry at St. Mel.

Bell Choir at Practice

Every week, the Bell Choir gets together to rehearse for the next liturgical event. They ring, plunk, pluck, thumb damp, swing, mart, lift AND understand the meaning of HD, LV, PL, R on the music sheet and if you think that's gruelling, they just keep coming back for more.
