Our Outreach Choir
This choir formed in Sept. 2007 and is open to anyone in the community over the age of 16 and is especially for anyone with a developmental or physical disability.
Nurturing Transformation
Morphosis means to have a profound change in form from one stage to the next in the life history of a being. We hope that this choir will make a profound impact in nurturing transformation through enjoyable singing!
Participants will be enjoying community in a safe environment, while experiencing and singing a wide range of music from African tribal chants to old time hymns as well as a variety of secular music. Singers will also become familiar with movement and instruments.
An Open Invitation
This is a non-auditioned choir and is open to anyone that is interested no matter what their musical abilities are. The choir rehearses on Saturday morning from 10:30 to 11:30 at Robertson-Wesley. There will be some opportunities for performances.

Funding
This choir program began with seed money from the Robertson-Wesley United Church trust funds. Since then we have worked very diligently to be self-sufficient, and have received one-time funding from The United Church Foundation "Seeds of Hope" grant, as well as a matching grant from the Alberta Government "Community Spirit Program" and have continued to draw upon some of the R-W trust fund resources. We continue to seek out funding to keep this integral program operating.
