Music & Drama


This exciting and dynamic troop reaches out to over 4,000 people a year in parish, local, regional and national settings. Folks of every skill level and age are welcome to be a part. Please watch the Life Long Faith Formation page of our bulletin for upcoming rehearsals, meetings and productions. We need actors, musicians, directors, speakers, jugglers, magicians, stage/props help and technical support. We are particularly in need of adult and young adult leaders who can empower our young leaders in music & drama!

Young People are encouraged to contact Patti Sullins at 301-948-7545 x235 to talk about getting involved in our St. Rose Liturgical Ministries. We are eager to include young people as ministers at our Masses. We also have two excellent children’s choirs coordinated by Dr. Jeanne Vanover. CLC (Children Love Christ) is for grades 1-5, and TLC (Teens Love Christ) is for grades 6-12.

The HOUSE BAND ministers year-round at parish, Archdiocesan and Regional Events. Young people from St. Rose and other many parishes grow in their musical, technical, ministry and leadership skills through the expert mentoring of our leadership team lead by our House Band Director, Justin Russell. Rehearsals resume just before Christmas and again in Lent.


Our YM Drama Ministries is also year-round and includes many YM, parish, regional and national events. This year our youth shared their ministry at retreats, Fiesta, Passion/Palm Sunday, Archdiocesan Youth Day, Encounter and the National Pastoral Musicians Conference, learning drama, production and leadership skills.
