A new all-women’s choir, The Healing Voices of Alexandria, invites women of all ages and backgrounds to join a powerful ministry of hope and healing through music. This choir belongs to the community—not any one church—and welcomes anyone with a desire to sing, whether experienced or new to choir.

Rehearsals start Thursdays at 6pm in the choir room at First United Methodist Church Alexandria at 2727 Jackson Street. The choir will prepare a diverse repertoire—from classic hymns to modern compositions—to perform in nursing homes, hospitals, and homes, reaching those in Alexandria and Central Louisiana who need comfort most.

Music has a unique power to lift spirits, bring peace, and heal. In times of grief, joy, pain, or celebration, these voices will offer genuine care through spiritual connection and song. Led by Elizabeth Nix and supported by Rev. Kennon Pickett, this ecumenical ministry invites laypeople to unite beyond divisions to bring the healing power of music to our most vulnerable neighbors.

To join or learn more, contact Elizabeth Nix at enix@fumca.org. Bring your voice, friends, and family—help us lift our community through music’s healing gift.
