The First Choir of Christ Temple |
The Inspirational Gospel Choir was born in 1950 out of combination of the Young People’s Choir and the Senior Choir of the Christ Temple Church. The late Mother Edith Norton and her brother, the late Elder Carl Butcher, Senior, were co-founders of the Christ Temple Church Inspirationals. Mother Norton directed and played for the choir, and served as the President of the Inspirationals for many years. The children of Mother Norton, Evangelist Rene Evans and Minister Sandra Ben, followed in their mother’s footsteps as they too became directors of the Inspirational Gospel Choir.

Under the direction of Evangelist Evans, the choir became widely known throughout Kennett and surrounding communities. The Inspirationals have been invited to sing at many of the churches in the areas and have participated in many community events. Many people have become acquainted with Christ Temple because of the Inspirational Gospel Choir.
