Twice a year the Saint Paul Seminary School of Divinity hosts a musical performance by its own Chorale. The Chorale has a history here at SPSSOD of having seminarians and lay students rehearse once a week, putting on their two peformances around the liturgical feasts of Epiphany and Easter. The Chorale also often sings for Diaconate Ordination for this Archdiocese. Well, this Sunday we will be having our yearly Easter performance. The music varies from Draw us in the Spirit's Tether, to Maneant in Nobis (a song written for Pope Benedict's Installation Mass as Bishop of Rome), to Lord of the Dance, to Crown Him with Many Crowns. Yours truly will be in the Chorale, but I am the only blogger singing with the group. All are invited to attend. It promises to be a rousing event!

What I want to know is, why wasn't this lay student ever told about the existence of said Chorale???
Okay, so I'm a CSMA student, not an MAT student. I still spend all day in IRL! And I took a class with last year's deacons. That's got to be good for at least honorary membership of SPSSOD.... ;-)

If I understand correctly, you need only approach Dr. Jenkins and he will happily add you to the Chorale.
Good question. It reminds me, however, that I forgot one point that I was going to mention but forgot to as I wrote the post: most of the seminarians are (obviously) current seminarians; most of the lay students are previous ones. Nevertheless, that shouldn't prohibit a current lay student from participating. And yes, they need only speak with Dr. Jenkins, or with him through a seminarian. We can always use more voices!
