The part of the linked question about Vector Asp addresses the same issue that this question is about.

[Anointed Chorister](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bAnointed%20Chorister%5d) has the activated ability:

> {4}{W}: Anointed Chorister gets +3/+3 until end of turn.

If I have two or more copies of this creature in play on the battlefield and pay the cost to activate this ability, will that one time payment of 4 colorless and 1 white mana activate the other copies as well, without spending more mana, or would I need to spend another 4 colorless and 1 white mana to get the other copies to trigger?
