Our Vision
A world where all at life’s thresholds may be honored with compassion shared through song.

Our Mission
Singing for those at the thresholds of life.

Each Threshold Choir chapter is firmly rooted in its local community while also being an important part of our shared community as an international organization. We sing from the same repertoire and share our experiences at regional and international gatherings. Choir members know they are welcome at rehearsals and gatherings outside their area and often make plans to visit when traveling. We also stay in touch by email, newsletter, video meetings, and through this website. Most important, of course, we share a culture of compassion and respect for individuals at the threshold.

Meet at the Westlake Porter Public Library to wrap gifts for our adopt-a-family. Bring any wrapping items you have to donate. All are welcome.
