This position requires, beside good people
skills, a commitment to the Catholic faith, management experience
in ministries, musical skill such as organizing choir, conducting
rehearsals, playing piano and organ, and directing choir
during the liturgies, working with our catholic school to
develop a musical program for our children; B.A in Liturgical
Music or its equivalent is minimum requirement; an M.A.
(or its equivalent) in pastoral studies or theology highly
recommended.
The Director of Ministries and Music is
full-time. Salary is negotiable based on experience and
background; benefits are also offered. In addition, the
parish’s vacant convent house can be used for housing,
and can be negotiated as part of the salary.
St. Mary serves Catholics and the community
in the city of Big Rapids and its surrounding area since
1878. Currently, there are over 300 registered families
within the parish. We have a K-8 Catholic school which celebrates
125 years of quality Catholic education this year. Since
2003, St. Mary shares the same pastor with another parish
within the city, St. Paul Campus Parish, near the Ferris
State University campus, and thus a new phrase of collaborations
and sharing ministries between the two parishes has begun.
