This is a unique ground-floor opportunity for someone who wants to shape the musical and liturgical life of a growing Anglo-Catholic parish. While this role is currently volunteer-based (as is the priest's role), it is intended to become a paid position as the parish continues to grow.

- Build and develop a choir (recruit, audition, and train singers)
- Lead music for Sunday Mass and special services
- Select and direct music consistent with Anglican liturgical tradition
- Incorporate a blend of Anglican and Southern Gospel hymns and songs
- Coordinate and rehearse with singers and musicians
- Ideally accompany on piano or keys (preferred but not required)
What We’re Looking For:
- Strong musical leadership and vocal direction skills
- Familiarity with or openness to Anglican liturgy and worship
- Ability to work independently and build something from the ground up
- Preferably able to sing and play piano/keys
- A heart for the Church and a desire to contribute to meaningful, reverent worship
Why This Role Matters:
You will be establishing the musical foundation of a parish committed to historic Christian worship, theological depth, and long-term growth in Denver. This is an opportunity to create something lasting.
Time Commitment:
- Weekly Sunday service (2:00 PM)
- Weekly rehearsal (flexible scheduling)
Location:
Denver, Colorado (in-person)
