5 PM Saturday Evening Musicians:

B ernice and Larry Friesenhahn are native San Antonians. They grew up on the south side and attended St. Cecilia’s Church.  While attending St. Cecilia’s school both were involved in music ministry playing guitar and singing for school and Sunday Masses. Bernice continued to participate in music ministry in high school and numerous adult choirs and was choir director at St. John Neumann’s Catholic Church for several years.  They came to Holy Trinity in 1995 and Bernice immediately joined the choir. In 2003 they answered Monsignor Fater’s call for Saturday evening music ministers and have provided music for this Mass ever since. Larry plays guitar and bass when the occasion arises, and Bernice plays guitar and leads the congregation in song. Both are retired educators with one son, Russell, who resides in California.
