Dear Parents,

My name is JaNet Hancock and I am the Director of Music at St. Michael’s Church and music teacher at St. Michael School. I wanted to take a few moments to invite your children in Grades K-8 to join our parish children’s choir this year! Participating in our parish music ministry is a beautiful way to share our God given talents with others. By leading the music at Mass, we help bring people closer to God. Not only is the music itself powerful in helping to convert hearts and souls, but so are your children as they make it happen! Last year was truly incredible and I look forward to the wonderful possibilities and blessings we will encounter this coming year. 

The role of the choir is to serve God, first and foremost. The Children’s Choir will be invited to sing approximately twice a month at the 9:30 am Mass at St. Michael’s. What an incredible opportunity for the children and a very special treat for all in attendance! We need as many Children’s Choir members as possible to join us for these Sunday Masses.

We will practice Tuesday afternoons from 4:00-5:00 pm in the 6th grade classroom and then on the Sundays when we sing, we meet at 9:00 am in the choir loft to warm up. Registration packets which include all choir information, including rehearsal schedules, Mass schedules and other special events can be found in the parish, school and faith formation offices.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have at music@StMichaelLivermore.com. I believe in strong communication, so you will be hearing from me often via email or text with reminders and updates!

Thank you for your trust in me. I am so blessed to be able to work with your children as we make a joyful noise unto the Lord! I ask that you please pray for us as we embark on a wonderful and exciting year of making music to praise God and give thanks for His many blessings. The children are touching hearts and saving souls. In turn, I will be praying for you and your children as we make this journey together.

Blessings!
JaNet
