The Music Program at St. Elizabeth of the Trinity Parish embraces the mission of service to one another and the larger community in the name of Jesus Christ.
Commissioned to spread the Word, our musicians respond by making music for the “honor and glory of God.”
Musicians serve in the most important gathering of the church, the liturgy, enabling the faithful to experience their faith through music.
