Music is a vital part of our liturgies and is truly our “prayer in song”. We number 24 Cantor/Song-leaders/accompanists and a full time Director of Music Ministry, servicing parishioners who attend both St. Augustine and St. Joseph Churches. Our ministry takes pride in the music provided for the happy and sorrowful events of our parish life.
Couples planning weddings may select music from the Wedding Music Selection Form.
Grieving families planning funerals are given a brochure from which they may select many music offerings.

In the words of St. Augustine, “He who sings, prays twice.” Our ministry goal is to make our music song-prayer in praise of the Lord.
