WONDERFUL!!!
I work at a retirement community in Wilson, NC. I often struggle to find entertainment that all of them can appreciate. However, our residents said within their 5 years here they enjoyed this more than any entertainer who has come and sang before! They are also very kind. I would highly recommend them!

About
Greatly Blest is a dedicated group of anointed vocalist and musicians that “Love the Lord” and carry on His mission in stunning harmony with an easy listening style. As well as original music written by the group, Greatly Blest worships with a genre of well know Southern Gospel music, both Past and Present. Their smooth and tight harmony is in true good old Southern Gospel style. The versatility of Tina, Joyce and Edwin doesn’t allow them to classified themselves as singing a specific part. Tina and Joyce cover all of the upper ranges of Lead, Alto and Tenor depending upon the arrangement and Edwin covers the mid to low ranges of Lead, Alto, Tenor and even touches the edge of Bass on certain arrangements. Greatly Blest considers ourselves a regional Group, traveling the eastern United States at present, but is willing to travel any where the Lord provides the means and opportunity.
Tina, Joyce and Edwin are no strangers to Southern Gospel Music. All three started as young adults and have played or sang with other Groups in the Past and performed on stage in a variety of venues. Greatly Blest is just getting started but while with other groups they have opened for other well know artists.
The members of Greatly Blest are related. Joyce and Edwin are husband and wife of 41 years of marriage. They were married in 1971. Tina is related to Edwin, they are 3rd cousins. Their Great Great Grandfathers were brothers, but that family harmony shines through.
