PHILADELPHIA — Between raising two young boys in Merion Station and working as an organizational consultant, Lisa Kollisch Gottesman said she never had time to keep up her former involvement in choral singing.
Just the first rehearsal “reignited my passion for singing,” said Gottesman, 52.But at a friend’s urging, last week she joined the Unity Choir, an annual collaboration of Zion Baptist Church, Main Line Reform Temple-Beth Elohim and Beth Am Israel.
“There was something really terrific about the fact that we are different but we’re sharing this thing that we both love to do,” said Gottesman.
The choir, which has grown to more than 70 members in recent years, is one of the most visible signs of the long-standing relationship among the Main Line congregations.
