"Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth; Break forth and sing for joy and sing praises." (Psalm 98:4)
What better way to praise God than through a joyful noise! Using guitars, bass, keyboard, wind instruments, drums, and percussion as accompaniment, the Contemporary Choir provides musical leadership to the congregation in praising God at different Saturday and Sunday Masses, September to June. The choir, under the direction of Frank and Karen Bursic, practices two Tuesday evenings a month and also provides musical leadership at a Festival of Praise once a month. They have participated in outside musical activities with others local Christian Churches in such events as “Praise in the Park” at Monroeville Community Park. If you enjoy giving Glory and Praise to the Lord through Contemporary Song, then we’d love to have you join us! We welcome new members on an ongoing basis and even if you can’t read music, our members will assist you in giving back to our Lord in song.
Come join the St. Bernadette Contemporary Choir for a wonderful evening of raising our voices in praise of our awesome God! A Festival of Praise will be held on Wednesday, October 16th at St. Susanna Catholic Church in Penn Hills at 7:00 PM. The theme for the evening is: “Love One Another, It’s a Command, Not a Choice!” The evening will be filled with prayer, song, reflection, reading, and adoration. All are welcome to share in this event and allow God to ignite your inner fire, letting Him guide you with His unending love. Encourage others to come out and experience this incredible faith gathering. We hope to see you there!
