From the first time they met in 1972, Carey was amazed by the
way Carol Jean used his "adult" music to reach children. She
challenged him to expand his ministry by crafting songs specifically for
kids. Soon they were combining Carol Jean's
experience as a teacher with Carey's strengths as a composer to create
the very successful Hi God religious education series.
Carey and Carol Jean
are partners in marriage as well as in ministry and have given
workshops and concerts throughout the U.S. and Canada, Australia,
Central America, Europe, Ireland and Scotland. Their music is known
and used worldwide. They are responsible for some of the world's
best-known liturgical music and catechetical resources for
children. They serve as Ministers of Music at Immaculate Heart of
Mary Catholic Church in Indianapolis, where they direct the
Children's Choir together and Carey directs the Adult Choir.
In addition to their
music ministry, Carey and Carol Jean both serve as Hospital
Chaplains at St. Vincent Hospital in their home town of Carmel,
Indiana. Carey is Certified as a Chaplain by the National
Association of Catholic Chaplains and Carol serves as a Volunteer
Chaplain. Carey received a master's degree from the Catholic
University of America and has studied music at St. Joseph's College,
Renssalaer, Indiana. Carol Jean received her master's degree in
education from Butler University in Indianapolis, Indiana.
