Mission Statement
The Holy Family 5:30 p.m. Youth Choir strives for spirituality through music ministry. In a professional manner, the 5:30 p.m. Choir leads the assembly in prayer through song by means of a cantor or ensemble, utilizing a variety of musical instruments and musical styles and serves the parish community in the spirit of love and sharing. "All Are Welcome" is the motto of the parish.
About the Choir
The 5:30 p.m. Youth Choir began in 1991 as a "monthly" liturgy, celebrated in the Annex (former Youth Ministry building). Anna Delgado was asked to lead the music for this Mass and she accepted. Little did she know what blessings the future held.
The group consisted of an out-of-tune piano, a couple of guitars, a tambourine, and four singers. Within a few months, the youth and parents who attended this Mass outgrew the Annex and the monthly Mass was moved to the church.
After the move to the church, the choir grew and we had a piano that was in tune. Word spread that there was a 5:30 p.m. Sunday Mass and before long the small group of youth was joined by other parishioners seeking a later Mass on Sunday.
In fall 1993, the choir was asked to sing weekly at 5:30 p.m. Mass. On November 30, 1993, the choir began its journey of becoming music ministers. We have been leading our 5:30 p.m. assembly in song since then and look forward to many more years of being part of this special community.
