Music Ministry
Welcome to the Music Ministry at St. Agatha St. James! Every Sunday, we try to be an expression of our parish’s faith life, and to be a reflection of God’s beauty. We make an effort to balance of participative and contemplative music and to offer opportunities to praise God in number of different musical styles. We are always looking for people who are willing to donate their time and energy toward making our liturgies more prayerful and heartfelt. We make an effort to accommodate busy student schedules, offering the freedom to come and go as your studies require.
To get involved please contact our Music Director, Ramsey Reyes: music@saintsaj.org.

Interested in praise-and-worship? We have multiple opportunities for this! Contact pcaufield@saintsaj.org for further details.
We are always interested in hearing from you if you’re interested in volunteering, or if you have feedback about the kind of music that you find most beautiful and helpful in Mass. Please feel free to reach out at any time if you have any questions, concerns or thoughts about our music.
