The GloryWay Quartet will be performing in concert on Sunday, April 24, 2022, in the 10:30 a.m. Worship Service at Immanuel Baptist Church, 500 West South Street, Arcanum. Pastor Greg Greve, Pastor Dan Kuhbander, and the congregation invite the community to come and enjoy the men’s quartet in concert.
GloryWay was founded in Mansfield, Ohio, by lead singer, Justin Crank. Raised on good old-fashioned gospel music, Justin developed a love for four-part harmony. What began as four friends singing around town was blessed by God and has blossomed into a powerful full-time ministry. GloryWay has the privilege of working with several prestigious agencies in the world of Gospel Music entertainment. GloryWay is signed with Capitol Artists as one of their booking agents and is also on the Gateway Management label, a highly-respected management agency. GloryWay travels more than 60,000 miles annually, all across the United States, sometimes booking engagements over a year in advance. Every weekend of the year, plus some, is packed full of exciting ministry opportunities for GloryWay. GloryWay puts on a unique and versatile performance that blends classic four-part harmony with exciting and inspiring new sounds and styles. They look forward to each and every opportunity to share their ministry. Each performance is sure to delight and encourage all who listen.
