"Gospel Singing Southern Style"
|
If you have ever heard of "Silver
Springs - Home of the Glass Bottom
Boats", located in north central Florida,
then you know where the Sounds of Joy
call home. For twenty-three years the
group has traveled from Florida to as far
north as Portsmouth, Ohio and as far
west as Meridian, Mississippi. Their
mission: delivering the gospel of Jesus
Christ through song.
This anointed ministry team is Bible
believing, born-again Christians who feel
called to go wherever the Lord leads
them.
The group that is now the Sounds of
Joy dates back to the mid 1980s. We
were known then as GloryBound. The
founding members of the group were:
Gary Bennett, Paul and Loretta Luke, Bob
Paxton, and David and Virginia Rice.
There have been many changes to the
group since this date. We praise God for
sending so many talented people to this
ministry to sing of His praises. The
current members of the group are: Gary
and Jennifer Bennett, Susie Fister, Larry
Hill, and Tina Solero.
While everyone enjoys doing God's
work, the main purpose of the group is to
see that "ONE MORE SOUL" comes to
know Jesus as their personal Savior.
