"The Church of Saint Jerome hereby dedicates itself to the accomplishment of the mission of Jesus Christ through the co-responsibility of all its members: clergy, religious and laypeople alike. We recognize that as members of Christ’s Church we are the People of God, and as the People of God, united in our belief in the Lordship of Christ, we shall endeavor to fulfill His desires with the help and presence of the Holy Spirit."

OUR MUSIC MINISTRY

The Saint Jerome Parish Choir sings each Sunday at the 10:30 a.m. Mass until Pentecost Sunday, which usually falls in the late part of May. There are also special liturgies that include the Choir. Those include (and are not limited to) Christmas, Holy Week, Easter, First Holy Communion, Confirmation and other special liturgies.

Our Cantors responsibility is to lead the congregation in song, and to proclaim the Responsorial Psalm and various acclamations. Cantors are scheduled for all Masses and are to be blended in with the Choir at times.

Lessons & Carols
A tradition at St. Jerome's since 2004, the Festival of Lessons & Carols tells the story of the birth of the Messiah through readings, musical performances by the choir and participation from the congregation singing familiar carols and hymns. The service will begin at 3pm with a organ performance of pieces musically illustrating the Christmas season.

The service is based on the original Festival of Nine Lessons & Carols, which began at Kings College, Cambridge, in 1918. Since that day, Lessons & Carols has been a holiday tradition widely broadcasted and emulated throughout the world.

The public is invited to attend. A free-will offering will be collected.
