SUMMARY:Mt Zion AME Millburn 1st Sunday presents  Singer Poet Wilma Ann
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Wilma Ann – Singer\, Author and Poet \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWilma Ann is a singer\, poet\, author and worship artist whose ministry lives where sacred song meets the spoken word. A native of St. Thomas\, U.S. Virgin Islands\, she first stood up to sing in church at eleven years old — and that sanctuary calling has shaped every stage she has stepped onto since. She studied vocal music at New York City’s “Fame” High School of the Arts and at Cornell University\, where she directed the gospel choir and founded the all-female gospel ensemble Baraka Kwa Wimbo\, learning early that a voice raised in praise can gather a whole community together. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom those roots she has sung at Carnegie Hall with the New York Choral Society\, headlined the Global Leadership Summit\, appeared on The Voice in Spain\, and toured internationally as a soloist and jazz vocalist. But whether the room is a concert hall or a church fellowship space\, her purpose is the same: to worship\, to testify\, and to help others lift their own voices.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Wilma Ann Anderson is also the author of the Amazon national and international bestseller Find Your Voice and Use It: A Guide to Moving from Fear to Freedom Anywhere Your Voice Needs to Be Heard. She carries that message — find your voice\, and use it for good — into every gathering she serves. \n\n\n\nAs a Poet\, Wilma Ann writes from the pulse of experience — The experience is one of worship\, word\, and the joy of a life still being beautifully woven together. Her collection “Tapestry” gathers verses that runs from bridges and bloodlines to the sacred and profane\, from war cries and rebellions to dreamscapes and departures\, all woven around a single tender dedication: to those of us who are joyfully being woven into a beautiful tapestry. \n\n\n\nMt Zion AME Millburn NJ\n\n\n\nRev.
