A LITTLE ABOUT THE ARCHIVES...

 

Great Adventure Gospel Band first debuted at their home church, St. Stephen's Lutheran (LCMS) Church in Braham, MN when they sang for the 2007 Christmas Eve service.  They started "officially" at North Isanti Baptist Church in Cambridge, MN in 2008 when they opened for the Southen gospel group, Living Sacrifice.  Since then, Great Adventure Gospel Band has toured across Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Nebraska, singing at churches of many denominations, community events, county fairs, senior homes, school assemblies and private events.  This page servces as an archive of their travels throughout the years.

 

If you are interested in having Great Adventure Gosepl Band come to your church or event, please contact David and Kris Garms for more booking information.  They'd love to meet you!
