Training the worship attitude of our children is like tending a rare plant. The seed must first be planted, and the soil kept in a condition that encourages growth. Once the seed has been planted, it requires patient care until it reaches full flower. When it does put forth a bud, fragrant with richness of true worship, we may be humbly grateful for the privilege of having been the gardener. The weekly rehearsal schedule begins after Labor Day and continues until the week before Christmas.
Rehearsals resume after New Year's Day and conclude with the Spring Concert.
The Children's Choir Program is under the direction and rehearsal of Mr. David Nastal. He has been music director at Mount Carmel since 1987. He has received advanced degrees in Liturgical Music, Music Education, Composition and Theology. He is an active member with National Pastoral Music association, where he serves as national chairman of the Children's Choir Division. The Children's Choir training program is integral to the Liturgical life of the community.
