Dave Moore

Director of Music and Liturgy - National Eucharistic Congress | CEO and Founder - Catholic Music Initiative

Dave Moore is a joy-filled disciple who seeks to honor God through his music, ministry, and family. A devoted Singer-songwriter, producer, and liturgist, Dave puts the bride of Christ before his artistic ambitions. Dave and his wife Lauren are the founders of Catholic Music Initiative, a non-profit apostolate that creates beautiful and singable music for Mass. Their work strives to build a bridge between contemporary and traditional isles while summoning engagement and enlivening the hearts of the faithful to enter into full union with God in the Mass. At the invitation of Bishop Edward Burns, Dave was instrumental in the strategic execution of the Diocese of Dallas televised Mass—a ministry that was born as a response to the global pandemic and continues to bear much fruit for the people in North Texas and beyond. 

Dave’s deepest desire is to see a unified church, where the Eucharistic Lord has a primacy of place in the hearts of the faithful, rightly honored, adored and worshiped. Dave resides in Dallas, Texas with his wife, Lauren, and their daughter.
