The purpose of the parish choir is to support the congregation in singing. In this choir group there are different age people included, such as children, youth, women, elders and nuns. In most of the parish, the congregation doesn’t sing at all. So the choir members of our parish gather in one place to ‘lead’ them so that they don’t feel like they are the only person singing. They made attempt to introduce both new and old music and songs to the congregation so the congregation can ‘follow along’ and eventually praise God by beautiful melodies. All this falls within the guidelines set by the pastor.
