Here at Catholic Notes, our Mission is to provide music ministers free resources and educational tools to better serve Christ at their local parishes.

Erica is from Columbia, MO and is a recent graduate of the University of Notre Dame. She currently works at Kerry Ingredients as a Process Engineer, helping to optimize the production of natural food preservatives. Erica enjoys playing the cello and piano, singing, and discovering new music. Many of her favorite memories stem from participation in liturgical choirs, as making music in vibrant communities of faith has been a source of joy in her life.

Fiona, Cantor

Fiona is a home-schooled junior who enjoys the great outdoors, singing, and performing in local theater productions. She loves how prayer can take such a beautiful form as music. Currently her greatest interests in school are deaf communications and becoming an American Sign Language interpreter. 

David, Technical Administrator

Although David primarily works as a high school teacher, he spends much of his free time at his parish as an altar server, Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion, lector, and sacristan. He also dabbles in web design and video editing.

Join our Team!

With so many musical techniques and types of sacred music, we’d love to expand our team to include other music ministers across the country. If you are interested in sharing your talents, please reach out using the “Contact Us” page. We look forward to talking more with you!
