Northeast Deanery Children's Choir Featured in America Magazine

The Northeast Deanery Children's Choir (pictured above signing at Christmas Eve Mass at Holy Name of Jesus Parish) was formed in 2014 but it's roots go back to when 4 of the parishes in the deanery combined schools to form John Paul II School. The objective is to provide an opportunity to children in 4th - 8th grades who do not otherwise have the opportunity to sing in their own parish or church choir. The NDCC is a traveling choir that sings for Mass once a month at four parishes who currently have participants; Holy Name of Jesus, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Our Lady of the Rosary and Sacred Heart. Our final Mass for this year will be the5:00 pm Mass at Holy Name of Jesus on May 7. Auditions for the Choir will take place at the beginning of the 2016 - 2017 school year.

The Choir was also recently featured on page 9 of the April 18 edition of America Magazine.
