I have a relative moving to the Dallas area who is a convert to Catholicism. They are trying to find a Catholic Church in the Metroplex that incorporates contemporary praise and worship songs , e.g. , OneSonicSociety, Jesus Culture, Chris Tomlin, Hillsong etc into Mass instead of traditional hymns.

The closest I'm aware of that has any of this type of music is St. Jude in Allen. I would sincerely appreciate any other recommendations I can pass along if anyone attending a Catholic Church can advise.

St. Ann in Coppell.

But honestly, most of the parishes do around here if you attend their teen mass (usually Sunday evenings)

Thank you! I will mention St Ann. That was another one I figured might be a good suggestion. Is there a particular mass time at St Ann to suggest, or would this be in any of the weekend masses?

I like the other end of the spectrum: Gregorian Chant Mass at the St. Thomas Aquinas 4pm Saturday vigil. I like my Latin lessons

I loved visiting St. John Cantius in Chicago a couple weeks ago for the 12:30 PM Extraordinary Form (Tridentine) Sunday Mass. I was bummed that it wasn't the normative Solemn High, but a Missa Cantata (Sung High Mass committing the deacon and subdeacon).

The only contemporary Praise & Worship music you'll hear in in a typical American parish is the horrible combination promulgated mostly by Marty Haugen and David Hass through the blue hymnals of Chicago-based GIA (structured like Broadway show tunes, favorites include Gather us In, One Bread One Body, etc.). They were contemporary during the mid '70s-early '90s and still currently hugely popular in urban, suburban, and even rural North America.

Not my experience in DFW parishes. I absolutely know what you are talking about though!

I know what you're saying as well but disagree for the Dallas area. I've visited St. Jude with relatives in Allen, and their Noon Mass on Sunday, as well as the 5:30 Mass had new songs you'd hear on Air1 or Christian radio today such as Chris Tomlin & Matt Redman.

My family member did visit St. Ann's Noon Mass per the suggestion on this board & told me that while they had a guitar, etc, none of the songs were contemporary - maybe it was an off week.

Some, or many, Catholic churches in DFW seem to have an evangelical music influence. As such, the 1970s hymnals with the hippy cover art are still ordered, but not used as much as in other cities. I prefer the truly traditional to the evangelical, but I"ll pick the evangelical over the hippy any day.
