The Total Experience Gospel Choir, a community choir led by founder and  directress Pastor Patrinell “Pat” Staten Wright, a Carthage,  Texas native, has been singing praises and delighting audiences for 38  years.  They have performed in 38 states, on 5 continents, and 22  countries.  They have just recently returned from Japan where they not only  presented the Word of God through song, they also once again delivered much  needed supplies to victims of the Tsunami which were located at a Refugee Camp  in Ishinomaki, Japan. The Choir has also won international Gold Medals in music  competitions as well as other music and humanitarian awards internationally and  domestically. After leaving Natchitoches, they will journey to New Orleans and  Gulf Port, Mississippi to check on individuals they helped following the Katrina  Hurricane where they have rebuilt and refurbished homes for two hurricane  victims. The Choir‘s ministry is not only musical but a hands on and Jesus  powered endeavor doing whatever they can to help those in need while leading  those that are lost to Christ.

If you want to be engulfed by a good foot tapping, multicultural, heart  thumping, soul saving, gospel music extravaganza; you need to be present at this  workshop and one of a kind concert.
