HEDDA DILLON
I got my degree in music in Denmark 🇩🇰 and was recruited to sing at my church, even before I became a Catholic. "Singing soothes my soul" whether in choir or as a cantor. |
|
DELL PETERSEN
I started singing at Franklin High School and Campus Life. I was in the Youth Choir with Campus Life called 'The New Tide SIngers.' Seven different High Schools represented. I've been in Church choirs ever since then. I sat behind the Nuns at the 8 o' clock Mass at St. Bernadette's and they encouraged me to Cantor. I love singing! I like praying and I still get nervous everytime but I enjoy singing for the Lord. Mistakes and all! God Bless. |

FILOMENA FACHA-BIANCHI I have been singing as part of a church choir or as a cantor, on and off, for 42 years. I think music & song enhance the experience of Mass by touching the hearts and ministering to those present in a way that, many times, words alone can't. Also, it is such a beautiful way to praise and glorify God. I am grateful and feel very blessed to be a part of St. Bernadette's Music Ministry. |

SHARON PIASECKI The church I grew up in (Presbyterian) had a wonderful music program. I sang in choirs from about 4th grade on up through high school. I became a Catholic in 2007, and have been at St. Bernadette’s since 2016. It has been so much fun to sing in the choir, after many years without that opportunity. I love to praise God through music. As the saying goes, “He who sings, prays twice!" |

LISA LENZ I love to sing and share my gift with others. I believes it is an honor to sing at Masses, Weddings and Funerals because music can bring so much peace, joy and comfort. I am a mother of three young boys and have been a cantor at St. Bernadette’s Church since 2018. |
|
CHRISTIE FERNANDO Growing up in a family of music lovers, I developed an appreciation for music at an early age and I joined a church choir during grade school and high school. Singing is one of my passions but I especially love singing for the Lord because it’s a wonderful feeling and brings joy to my heart. I've been a member of St. Bernadette’s Choir since 2015. And now as one of the cantors, I am honored to lead worship for my parish. I am very blessed to be part of the music ministry. May God bless us all! |

ELIZABETH QUIJANO As one of the Pioneers of St. Bernadette's Choir back when it started, I am very blessed to be one of the first few members of the group. Being a member of St Bernadette’s Choir allowed us not only to sing but be part of a big family, serving the Lord and the Community. I am so grateful for the opportunity given to me to be one of the Cantors and lead our Beloved Congregation in Song, to sing and pray twice for Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. |

MG "MANNY" TORRECAMPO As a retired 68 year old, I have resided in Stockton for the last 40 years. And along in those years I have been a faithful parishioner at St. Bernadette's Catholic Church for the last 17 years. I heard the Calling and joined our Church Choir in 2015. Each expression and response of Joy from our Church Parishioners to our Lord God is what motivates me to sing as a Blessed Choir Member and Cantor for the Lord. |
