PERRYSBURG - The Hospice of Northwest Ohio Chapter of the Threshold Choir is playing host to fellow choir members from all over the region during their annual conference next weekend. The three-day gathering opens on Friday and will be held at Grace Methodist Church, 601 East Boundary St..
A Threshold Choir is typically comprised of all female voices singing at the bedside to bring comfort and ease to those on the threshold of living and dying. It is all done in rounds, chants and lullabies - to hymns, spirituals or choral music. Family members are invited to join in the singing, which follows an ancient tradition.
Songs are chosen that appeal to the patient's taste and spiritual direction and families overwhelmingly have a positive response.
