The Outreach Choir

Woodland Presbyterian Church

Memphis, Tennessee

 

          Four times a year you will find about thirty men and women from Woodland Presbyterian Church performing at nursing homes in the Memphis Area.  This unusual ministry was formed by Libby Trumble, music director, and Dottie Todd about four years ago.   

 

There are more places to go than time, but a favorite is the Kings Sons and Daughters Home.  Residents there join in singing and, as in the Fall Western Show, are part of the posse ridding the town of undesirables.

 

 The scope of the shows has grown over the years and now includes a costumer, Mary Alma Wilkinson, a craft group who make gifts for each resident, a handbells choir, the choir and assorted actors.
