Contact: Jim Baltrinic, Executive Director Address P.O. Box 129 Green Ohio 44232 United States Phone: 330-833-0675 Link: http://www.saintceciliaclassicalproductions.org
Biography

Saint Cecilia Classical Productions Inc., is a music-based, Catholic, evangelization apostolate. As an orthodox, Catholic organization, whose ultimate goal is the salvation of souls, we are committed to the proclamation and defense of the teachings of the Catholic Church, especially in regards to issues involving the sanctity of life and the traditional institution of marriage.

The principle focus of our ministry is the improvement of the spiritual and moral character of young people, by bringing to them the truths of the Gospel and the teachings of Jesus Christ. It is by these means that we will further the Church’s efforts to create a new Culture of Life, which will, in turn, bring about greater peace and tranquility in our society.

Our strategy is to use entertainment groups of orthodox, Catholic, young women who can be good role models for today’s youth, and, at the same time, instill in them a better understanding of the truths of the Catholic Faith, which, in turn, will better equip them to challenge the anti-life and anti-family mentality that is so prevalent in today’s society.

A big part of the mission of these groups is to promote a positive, truly feminine, image of young women. Performing in small vocal ensembles, under the name “The Ladies of Cecilia”, these young ladies will take the principles of our Catholic faith, as well as the ideals put forth by Pope John Paul II in his writings on the family, and “multiply”, so to speak, their effect through the medium of music: quality music performed by young women of character, modesty, and grace. Through their own good example, and the witness they give, these young women will promote the virtues of true womanhood and authentic Catholic family life to today’s young people.

Saint Cecilia Classical Productions Inc. is a non-profit, 501 (c) (3) public charity. We were organized exclusively for religious, educational and charitable purposes.
