Crown of the Continent Choir to perform at Mission

The Crown of the Continent Choir of the Flathead Valley presents a free benefit concert for the St. Ignatius Mission Restoration Project on Sunday, April 12, at 2 p.m. at St. Ignatius Mission.

Donations from the concert will support ongoing restoration work at the historic Mission, widely recognized as one of Montana’s most significant landmarks.

This year’s program features an uplifting mix of contemporary choral works, including “Power of Kindness,” “America,” “The Dream,” “The Road Home,” and more, along with the choir’s signature piece, “One Voice.” Together, these selections explore themes of compassion, belonging, bittersweet nostalgia, and the quiet courage that shapes our lives.

The choir is led by Craig Thomas Naylor and accompanied by Eunhwa Park.

The Crown of the Continent Choir is a nonprofit community choir based in the Flathead Valley. Singers of varied ages and musical backgrounds come together to share music that uplifts and connects the community.

Through free concerts and benefit performances, the choir raises funds for local charities and nonprofit organizations across northwest Montana.

Doors open at 1:15 p.m. The concert is part of the choir’s spring season, which concludes with the “Power of Kindness” spring concert on May 3, at the O’Shaughnessy Center in Whitefish, featuring Kalispell’s African drum ensemble, Ashe.
