Choir directors, musicians, cantors, singers and members of the wider faith community came together for an afternoon of prayer and song.
The celebration combined shared learning, communal singing, prayer and reflection, highlighting the role of music in deepening faith and supporting worship.
MC Susan Ormond spoke about music as a means of sharing faith, while Anna Smith reflected on how the Jubilee of Youth in Rome last summer deepened her faith and led to her involvement in music ministry in the Ss Peter and Paul’sYoung Adult Mass held on the second Sunday of each month.
Bishop Fintan described the event as a response to feedback from the Year of Prayer, Listening and Discernment, which expressed a desire for good liturgical music.
He thanked the organising committee, and offered a blessing for those present and thanked them for their ongoing generous commitment to music ministry.
