Threshold Choir Confirms our values and respect for all people – this is what we stand for, as stated on the home page of the Threshold Choir website:

Threshold Choir sings with and for all people.

We know that music has the potential to be a healing power and can be an instrument for peace and justice. We are committed to creating a harmonious culture of inclusivity, respect, and love.

We affirm the beauty, dignity, and wholeness of all people and believe that everyone deserves to be treated with kindness from their first to their last breath.

The Brisbane Threshold Singers spent a wonderful weekend with the Ballina Threshold Singers members to celebrate 25 years of kindness made audible internationally across the world through The Threshold Choir. We also connected with the Sydney Threshold choir via zoom. We sang, walked, swam, chatted, laughed, ate, hugged, smiled, slept, made new friends, got to know each other better, learned songs and shared heart felt kindness with each other. We sang to a friend who was experiencing her own threshold time in her life....this was special as singing for those experiencing tender thresholds in their lives is what we do with love and care.

Threshold Choir chapters around the world touch thousands of lives every year. For Pam Espinosa, Threshold Choir leader and chapter founder twice over, this mission is fundamental to her daily work.

“At times this work can be difficult, but it is such an honor and privilege,” Pam said. “We bring comfort and peace to people through music. We strive to make the journey a little lighter, and while we are giving with our voices and hearts, we receive such blessings in return.”

Pam’s commitment to giving back to her community via music is fundamental to who she is. She has taken Threshold Choir with her around the world, coaching chapters on Zoom from Ecuador and supporting fledgling chapters from Florida to Indiana and Massachusetts.

Recently, the Boca Raton chapter, one of the chapters founded by Pam and her daughter, Monica, had the opportunity to share their gifts during a bedside sing. Watch the video to see a snippet of the impact a bedside sing can make.

Threshold Choir is the passion of incredible leaders like Pam around the world. Will you join us in expanding this mission by making a gift to the Blanket the World with Song campaign? Please visit our website to donate today.
