Stella
Inspired by Mary’s Fiat and honoring Stella Maris—Our Lady, Star of the Sea—Stella is a contemporary Catholic music ministry based in Jacksonville, Florida. Seeing God’s goodness and grace through life's crashing waves and its greatest joys, they ask: how can we keep from singing?
Stella brings energy, joy, and prayer together through music—blending beloved hymns, contemporary praise and worship, and their signature medleys into a dynamic experience of faith. Their mission is simple: to help people encounter Christ and truly “sing and pray twice.”
