The Choir often performs concerts at nursing homes and senior citizens residences and other churches. In October of this year they traveled to Washington, D.C. for the third time to perform.  The Choir has sung in the Cathedral in Galway, Ireland and has traveled to Italy four times to sing at the Vatican and The Basilica of St. Francis in Assisi. 

From 1988 until last year the Choir has appeared on "The Sunday Mass" at least 50 times.  They frequently celebrated Mass with Cardinal McCarrick and Cardinal O'Connor and on one occasion with the Papal Nuncio

Coro Latino sings for the Sunday 1:30 pm Mass in Spanish. A self-taught and naturally talented group of singers and guitarists rehearse and sing each week songs in a traditional Spanish style.
