St. James Music Ministry

Diane Scarbrough - Director

The music ministry at St. James is perfect for the young and not-as- young who wish to glorify God through music. Whether you prefer traditional Catholic music or a more contemporary sound, we have the perfect place for your talent.

This ministry is led by Diane Scarbrough who has been actively and passionately involved in music ministry all her life. She has been our music director for 9 years and a parishioner of St. James since 1990. Diane received a Bachelor of Music Education from Southern Illinois University where she majored in Voice (opera concentration) and minored in Piano. She continued her voice studies with Metropolitan

Opera diva Marjorie Lawrence and Ralph Nolan of Mercer University. Diane is also the Director of The Henry Singers, an all-volunteer singing group which often performs concerts at St. James.

O glorious saint, who chose to die

Instead of denying your King.

We pray you please to help us

As His fair praise we sing!

We lift our hearts in joyous song

To honor Him this way,

And while we sing, remembering,
