This includes letting us know where you are involved in music (e.g. your parish, school, or youth group). If you aren’t doing music in a Catholic setting yet, just let us know and we’ll help to connect you in the way that best suits you.

If you know who you want to be your teacher, let us know who it is in your application. It’s important that they be able to teach the style of music needed for worship.

If you don’t have a teacher or need help finding one, just let us know on the application and we’ll try to help!

Meet the Chaplain or a team member from Music for Mission along with your family. This can happen wherever suits you best, at home, at a parish nearby, or at Father’s residence.

You’ll be expected to attend 2 formative events, either a retreat or a mission, during the semester you’re applying for.

It’s up to the parents to arrange the lessons with the music teacher while ensuring that they contact Music for Mission to cover the cost.

Once all this has been done, Music for Mission will cover the costs of the lessons for up to a total cost of up to $500. At the end of each semester, there is a simple process for renewing the agreement for another semester. This gives us the opportunity to evaluate your progress.

We’ll also check in regularly with the parents and music teacher on the progress and commitment to the program. Keeping up with personal practice between lessons is essential.
