Choir
The Chaplaincy Choir leads and animates the liturgical assembly in sacred song, praising Almighty God and lifting the hearts and minds of worshippers through sacred music and hymns.
Mission and purpose
To glorify God and sanctify the faithful through music of genuine artistic beauty, leading the congregation in active liturgical participation during Mass and sacred celebrations.
Catholic identity and spirituality
Grounded in the psalms, liturgical prayer, and the scriptural tradition of praise, uniting vocal discipline with deep personal contemplation of the liturgical mysteries.
History of the wider movement
Sacred liturgical singing has accompanied Catholic worship from apostolic times. The Second Vatican Council's Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, Sacrosanctum Concilium, affirmed that the musical tradition of the universal Church is a treasure of inestimable value, higher even than that of any other art.
Major activities and apostolate
Weekly choir rehearsals, learning liturgical chants and hymns in English, Latin, and local languages, animating Sunday Masses and solemn feast days, and singing during sacred concerts and carol services.
