Director of Music Ministries - Holy Family Catholic Parish, Latrobe, PA
Holy Family Catholic Parish is seeking a Director of Music Ministries. Our beautiful Parish of 1600 families is located in Latrobe, Pennsylvania in the Diocese of Greensburg. We are seeking a dynamic and talented individual who will embrace his or her position alongside parish staff and volunteers dedicated to “Divinely Renovating” our parish into a community of believers who seek to welcome all to a transformational relationship with the Lord. Music is an integral part of this process, and so we are looking for someone who can play beautiful music on the organ and piano, lead our choirs, train cantors, and plan the music for our liturgy. A successful candidate will not only have these abilities, but will also be enthusiastic about his or her work for the Catholic Church and seek to invite others to join in our musical worship at Mass. It is our expectation that the music produced by the Music Minster and choir will bring the joy of the Gospel to all those in the pews, and draw them more deeply into the mysteries of the liturgy. It is preferred that a candidate will have a Bachelor’s degree in an area of music and some experience in Catholic liturgy. Our parish has recently joined the Divine Renovation Network. A strong applicant will be familiar with Divine Renovation, or be ready to learn more about it, and eager to join in the work!
Benefits are available. Salary commensurate with ability and experience.
Applicants, please send a cover letter, resume, recordings (if possible), and three letters of reference to Father Dan Mahoney, at dmahoney@dioceseofgreensburg.org (holyfamilylatrobe.org) (posted June 9, 2018)
