But as important as all that is, it\u2019s not all that the <a href=\"https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/index.php\/2017\/10\/07\/in-interview-notre-dame-folk-choirs-new-director-j-j-wright\/\">Folk Choir at the University of Notre Dame<\/a> is about.\u00a0From the beginnings of the choir under founding director Steve Warner, social outreach to prisoners has been an important part of the choir\u2019s ministry.<\/p>\n<p>Karen Schneider-Kirner has been with the Folk Choir since 1997 and served as director and also composed for the choir. She was immediately pleased to see that under her colleague Steve Warner the choir regularly sang on Mother\u2019s Day at a maximum security state prison in Michigan City. This Mother\u2019s Day tradition continues under current leader J.J. Wright.<\/p>\n<p>This prison is very run down. There is pealing paint on the wall, no bright colors, no open windows for fresh air. And it is there that the choir brings its message of hope and beauty to the inmates. Many of the inmates were not able to be present when their own mothers were buried, so that day can be particularly painful for them. The choir insistes on having a \u201cmeet and greet\u201d with the men in the middle of the concert, to shake hands and talk with the men as individuals.<\/p>\n<p>For her part, Schneider-Kirner started the \u201cCelebration Choir\u201d at Notre Dame for football weekend Masses. In addition to singing on campus, this group sang at social service agencies such as Center for the Homeless or Dismas House for rehabilitated prisoners. One of the choir members had spent a year abroad volunteering in Southeast Asia and shared how some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footitalia.com\/betting-sites\/singapore\/\">Singapore betting sites<\/a> were required to fund social reintegration efforts\u2014sparking reflection among the group about how different systems support or neglect those re-entering society. The choir sang two concerts each fall at the South Bend Juvenile Justice Center\u2014one for male and one for female youths. In the spring they sang at Westville Correctional Facility, the largest prison in Indiana, with over 3,000 inmates, 50% people of color. Today this choir is under student leadership, but the ministry to these facilities continues. And at Schneider-Kirner\u2019s encouragement, the Gospel Choir, Voices of Faith, has also begun going to Westville Correctional annually.<\/p>\n<p>Schneider-Kirner says that she and the singers at Notre Dame are inspired by the USCCB statement from 2000, <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.usccb.org\/issues-and-action\/human-life-and-dignity\/criminal-justice-restorative-justice\/crime-and-criminal-justice.cfm\">Responsibility, Rehabilitation, and Restoration: A Catholic Perspective on Crime and Criminal Justice<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em>The bishops&#8217; statement emphasizes that we should not forget about his population, the majority of which comes from poverty and who are oftentimes victims of violence themselves.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/index.php\/2018\/02\/25\/serving-others-notre-dame-folk-choir\/in-prison\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-40896\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-40896 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/praytellblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/IN-Prison.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"378\" height=\"213\" \/><\/a>\u201cVisiting prisoners is one of the corporal works of mercy, found in the teachings of Jesus,\u201d Schneider-Kirner notes, but it is difficult at first for those who \u201chave no particular connection to someone who is incarcerated.\u201d She emphasizes that \u201cwe know our personal safety will not be an issue, as both prison staff and the inmates want our visit to go smoothly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Prisoners send poems, notes of thanks, occasionally even oil paintings to singers after they have returned to Notre Dame, Schneider-Kirner says. The choir includes an intention at the end of each Thursday night&#8217;s rehearsal &#8220;for the men of Michigan City prison&#8221; and for all the incarcerated.<\/p>\n<p>Schneider-Kirner says that Lent is a perfect time for a church choir to do social outreach. In fact, this very day the choir is sing a piece originally composed for the men of Westville Correctional Facility: &#8220;If God is For Us, Who Can be Against Us?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe sing it, and remember,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prisoners send poems, notes of thanks, even oil paintings to choir members who have sung for them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":40898,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3119,187],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40894","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-plaza-new-ws","category-social-justice"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
