Prayer to St. Cecilia
O glorious Saint, who chose to die instead of denying your King. We pray you please to help us as His fair praise we sing! We lift our hearts in joyous song to honor Him this way. And while we sing, remembering to sing is to doubly pray. At once in our hearts and our tongues we offer double prayer Sent heavenward on winged notes to praise God dwelling there. While with our hearts and tongues we try with song to praise God twice. We ask dear Saint to help us be united close with Christ!
Amen

About Us

Where there is devotional music, God is always at hand.” – Johann Sebastian Bach

Our choir at St. Thomas Forane Church is blessed to have St. Cecilia as our patron saint. Known as the patron saint of musicians, St. Cecilia devoted her life to glorifying God through song. Her unwavering faith and dedication inspire our choir members to bring the same joy and reverence to our parish liturgies. Her influence encourages us to serve through music, creating a deep connection with the divine in every Holy Qurbana.

Music is a powerful element of worship, elevating the soul and drawing the faithful closer to the mysteries of our faith. At St. Thomas Forane Church, our choir plays a vital role in deepening the spiritual experience of our liturgies. Comprising the Senior, Youth, and Junior Choirs, our members are skilled in both vocal harmonies and a range of instruments, infusing each service with devotion and reverence. The Senior and Youth Choirs lead the morning and evening Holy Qurbanas, setting a tone of spiritual reflection and unity. Our Junior Choir, made up of dedicated Catechism students, leads the Catechism Holy Qurbana and supports special celebrations such as First Holy Communion and feast days.

Together, our choirs work in harmony to bring the parish closer to God, filling each service with a spirit of reverence and heartfelt devotion that deepens our collective worship and connects us to the grace of the Holy Qurbana.
