Austin Family
Gospel Singers

We are a family group of gospel singers, committed to spreading the gospel through song and testimony. We are all “Born Again” believers in Christ Jesus and we all agree the "He" is the most important member of our group.

Some of our favorite musical selections to perform are: America Back to God, Please Forgive Me, There Will Be a Payday, Blood Covered It All (performed by Katie), He's Still God (performed by Gared) and several others.

We also have a Christmas program that includes a lot of traditional songs as well as some that are unique.
