Join Voices

If you would like to be invited to a weekly 10-minute zoom to just SING IN COMMUNITY, you can sign up here. We did our first call on Sunday, Feb. 2, 2025. To my great surprise and delight, we had people join us from across the globe, including Hawaii, Oregon, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, and New Zealand! I had never met some of these beautiful people, which was all the more delightful. Please help spread the word.

Why Do We Sing?

These feel like dark times, when authoritarian governments are rising and the rights and freedoms of the people are being stripped from us. There are many ways to protest. My intention in starting this movement was to find a way to build community and to nurture the light. Many forces have been pushing us to feel divided and isolated. May this pebble ripple out a movement of reconciliation and uniting we the people, remembering our humanity and the beauty of blessings that kindness bring.

I’d been trying to find a way to personally navigate the storm of destruction and hate that is being rained upon us by the new U.S. administration. While part of me wants to rail—and frequently I do—I also do not want the anger and hatred to win. So while I will keep my eyes open to what’s happening, I will also choose ways to be the light in all this darkness.

An idea came to me as I was trying to sleep. Perhaps this is an act of protest. But is also an idea of how we can build strength and resilience as a community of people around the world. We can sing together.

When Do We Sing?

Each Sunday at 4pm Pacific Time. For just about 10 minutes. I’ll send out weekly reminders on Fridays with the link and songs so you can find them online or in Spotify or wherever and get familiar in advance if you choose.

What If I Don’t Feel Comfortable Singing?

No problem. Be present with us and just listen. Or sing with your zoom on mute. The point is not trying to sound like a choir. But I also hope that you’ll consider it a chance to vibrate with us. That’s what matters. That we are NOT muted in the world, that we have our voice, our voices together, and we will stand together.

Vibration is what sound and music are, and that’s true of energy as well. And we are energy. It seems like it would, if nothing else, feel healing to gather.

What Do We Sing?

That depends on all of us. Suggest songs and share the lyrics.

We started with “We Shall Be Known” by MaMuse. But that’s only a beginning. I’ll send out the song/s for week in the Friday reminder emails.

Can I Invite Others?

YES!!! PLEASE DO!!! The best way, I believe is to invite them to sign up here, or to forward one of the Friday reminder emails.
