Dear Parish Community of St. Mary’s,

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as your new Director of Music Ministry! My name is Joel M. Condon, and I am from Bergenfield. I have spent the past three years as an accompanist and Co- Director of Music at St. Andrew’s RC Church in Westwood, and I am very excited for my new position at St. Mary’s! I am looking forward to meeting with all of our choirs and ensembles, and to starting some new programs and traditions as time goes on.

I encourage anyone who has any interest in joining the Music Ministries to come see me after any of the weekend masses, or contact me at music@stmarysdumont.org. Right now, we are looking for volunteer cantors to enhance the weekend liturgies. Adult Choir Rehearsals will begin on Tuesday, October 29th at 7:30pm, and Children’s Choir will begin on Wednesday, October 30th at 4:00pm. I am looking forward to a successful, spiritual, and song-filled year!

Yours truly,
Joel M. Condon
