Inshallah is a group of community singers based at Waterloo Lutheran Seminary under the direction of Debbie Lou Ludolph. The idea for the choir was inspired by a trip to Palestine in 2007 where Debbie Lou and a team of others had a transforming time worshipping and singing in the midst of all that they were experiencing. The Arabic word inshallah means “God willing.” It was a word that they often heard amongst the Palestinian people.
