Chisom Orji sings gospel. SJ Dodgson. MJoTA 2012. v5n1 p0609
Pictures, Ms Constance Chisom Orji, whom I know as the solo singer in the
choir at St Cyprian's Roman Catholic Church, and the wife of Dr
Christopher Orji, who works so hard for the Philadelphia organization
known as the African and Caribbean Business Council.
The pink picture I took during Mass on Sunday, when she was
showing the trophy she won as the Nigerian promoters Association, USA,
Best Gospel Musician of the year. Which is not the only award she has.
Chisom
works as a physician assistant, which was what first interested me
about her, but she is focused on her singing career, and when Omenihu
Amachi, click here,
interviewed her for MJoTAtalks, she spoke about her singing.
Chisom
was born after the Biafran War, she knew about it, but she does not
think about it daily as do the survivors of that massive tragedy.
I like that. She is singing,
and taking care of patients, because her parents were not genocided
along with 3 million others. Just like my own younger children Allister
and Patience are strong athletes because their Jewish German grandmother
was not genocided with 6 million others. Biafra, click here.
And the church, St Cyprians, pictures and story about the priest Father Kieran, click here. Dr Chieke Ihejirika is a faithful member of the church, click here, as is Omenihu Amachi, click here and High Chief MC Orji click here.
The Coalition of African Communities of Philadelphia was started by
several professionals, some of them are members of this church, click here.
