The David Initiative: A competition to help equip a new generation of worship leaders
February 6, 2017 - 8:57pm — Richard Schletty
What if the music at our parishes was as moving and powerful as the Mass deserves? The David Initiative is a collaboration between many organizations/artists that dream of seeing this question answered. We know that in order to see this hope become a reality, we need to invest in a new generation of music ministers.
Enter your Catholic parish in this competition to win music equipment or a year of liturgical music mentorship. Details at www.davidinitiative.com.
Music should not be a liturgical afterthought
The Church sees music as an integral part of our worship. Sacrosanctum Concilium tell us: “The musical tradition of the universal Church is a treasure of inestimable value, greater even than that of any other art. The main reason for this pre-eminence is that, as a combination of sacred music and words, it forms a necessary or integral part of the solemn liturgy.” (SC112)
For more from Dr. Marcellino D'Ambrosio (Dr. Italy), visit The David Initiative Blog and The Crossroads Initiative. Also, please visit Catholic Creatives.

I am looking for an old Catholic hymn that we used to sing in May when I was in grammar school (St. Thomas Moore, Paradise, CA). The first verse went: "Mother Dearest think that never here on earth it has been heard that in sorrows whatsoever men to thee in vain have fled."
