Ravalli Threshold Singers
Who We Are and Where We Sing
- We are a group of women who are sensitive to the tender and unique needs of those who are seriously ill, dying, or grieving the loss of loved ones.
- We bring compassionate and peaceful songs to bedsides in homes, hospitals, care facilities or other locations by request.
- Solo or in groups of two to four, we sing gentle songs from a variety of traditions to soothe, comfort, uplift, and bring peace.
- We sing when invited by patients, family members, and caregivers and come as often as requested.
- We honor and respect each individual’s spiritual journey regardless of belief or religion.
- We offer this service as a gift; there is no charge.
- We serve the Ravalli County communities and surrounding areas of Florence, Stevensville, Victor, Corvallis, Hamilton, and Darby in Montana.
Although we are not a “performance” choir — that is, our form of service is to sing to one person (plus caregivers) at the bedside — we generally say yes when invited to sing for events and occasions that align with our mission. We will sing for memorial services, hospice-related events, conferences and trainings that focus on death, dying and grieving, and other community events that seek to bring peace in difficult times.
Singing With Us
- We welcome new members and there is no audition for the choir.
- We ask that you be able to carry a tune, to hold your part, to sing softly, to blend with others, and to communicate kindness with your voice.
- We ask that you be willing to accept peer feedback, in the service of creating the sweetest, most blended and graceful sound possible for our clients.
- Singing at the bedside comes when one feels ready; it is not required.
- Our practices are normally on Tuesday afternoons.
