sacred
music
The Church teaches us that “the musical tradition of the universal Church is a treasure of inestimable value, greater even than that of any other art”. Because of this, the musical selection at Holy Name gives chant “pride of place” as the Church indicates, includes some of the best traditional English hymns and the propers of the Mass. Come to the 10:30 Mass to pray while the schola sings beautiful polyphonic motets. If you are interested in joining the choir, please contact Angie Woods at music@holynamedenver.org.
Knights of
the altar
Serving at the altar is a great privilege! The altar servers work with and learn from Father and Deacon. Any boy (ages 8+) who has received his First Communion is eligible. Training is held periodically, but servers can join at any time, after studying a handbook and meeting/registering with the altar server coordinator. Contact Craig Soto at HolyNameAcolytes@gmail.com.
sacristans
of little therese
This important ministry trains girls to serve in the sacristy, and is open to all girls who have received their First Communion. It is not only a beautiful way for girls to participate in parish life, but also cultivates a deep, reverent understanding of the Mass. Participating girls will attend occasional trainings, and serve in the sacristy both before and after Mass. Contact Brianna Heldt at briannaheldt@hotmail.com.
