“They’ve prayed in times of illness and showed love and care in times of need. One of the most rewarding musical experiences is stepping onto the stage with Linda and the Chorale. I am forever grateful to Linda Tedford and the Susquehanna Chorale for enriching my life immensely. I am blessed beyond measure, and am honored to collaborate with one of the finest choral ensembles in the Central Pennsylvania region.”
