Children’s Choir
The Nativity Children’s Choir is seeking parishioners ages 9-14 to help beautify our worship. Please contact Gabriella DiDomenico at childrenschoir@nativitychurchnj.org for more information and to join!
The children will sing at 9:30am Sunday Masses once a month in October and November, as well as the 4pm Christmas Eve Mass. Rehearsal will be held the Saturday preceding the scheduled Mass. Choir members will also assemble 30 minutes before Mass to warm up and review. Attendance at rehearsal is required for participation in Mass. Children are expected to be comfortable sitting in the choir loft the entirety of the Mass. They will learn traditional and contemporary hymns to inspire congregational singing and highlight their young voices. They do not need to commit to all Masses to participate.

Contemporary Music Ensemble
The Contemporary Music Ensemble (CME) participates in 9:30am Mass every Sunday. We are actively seeking new voices and instruments to join our group. If you can carry a tune and enjoy singing with others, we really need you!
Currently, we have 10 active members and, on some Sundays, given travel and other demands, we may have only four members in the loft. Ideally, we will build the choir to 20 members, or more. The time commitment is limited to two rehearsals a month and being in the loft on Sunday mornings at 9am to do final preparations for the Mass.
So, we ask that you take a moment to consider joining the CME. If you hear someone near you singing with a beautiful voice during Mass, and you’re prompted to do so by the Holy Spirit, please encourage them to join us.
