Singer and songwriter Sean Feucht brings music to correctional facility

Singer and songwriter Sean Feucht made a stop at the South Bay Correctional Facility in South Florida to play some music with the prisoners.

The visit was made possible through the Jack Brewer Foundation, and Feucht jumped at the chance to go behind the prison walls.

What they're saying:

"I was really surprised at the response," he admitted once inside the prison, "I was surprised at how attentive they are."

His team captured the ministry time on camera as Feucht and the members of the JBF group interacted with the prisoners there in the common room.

"I just shared with them my struggles," he said, "They shared with me their struggles... There is far more in common than we realize."

And, for a moment, the prison bars were gone, the doors were no longer locked as these men all enjoyed the celebration of time together with a common goal of supporting one another.

"It's amazing how we can come into a place of unity," said Feucht, "One of the reasons I wanted to come here in Florida is there is incredible open doors. They are actually reaching out and the State is actually allowing it to happen. They have counselors that come in, they have preachers that come in, not every state has that opportunity."

What's next:

While Feucht's visit has already taken place, the Jack Brewer Foundation works to set up opportunities like this all year long.
