Support the Choir

Why Give?

Members of the choir at Our Lady of the Road (the daytime drop-in center for the Catholic Worker in South Bend.)

Gifts help support our music ministry both on campus, in our local community, and as we travel the globe. We strive to serve others and to bring beauty into the world through our prayerful song as we all grow closer to Christ! 

"The world will be saved by beauty." -Dorothy Day, founder of the Catholic Worker Movement

• Funding to help the choir encourage the composition of new music for the Catholic Church and women's voices through commissioning new works and composition contests
• Funding to bring our music ministry to future pilgrimages in partnership with the Holy Cross Missions (such as our 2019 pilgrimage to the Holy Cross Missions in Peru, South America)

• Funding for transportation to bring the women to local communities and parishes
