“The Vegas Story”
We arrived in
Las Vegas in 1982 as the Joe Russell Singers a southern gospel trio,
driven by the spirit of evangelism. Music was the key that opened doors
for revival meetings through out the nation. In
1983
we rented a helicopter, flew over the city, claimed
this Entire valley for the Lord!
We quickly began street ministry, radio
and television. God is on the move in Las Vegas, Nevada. Join us in
faith for a great move of God in our city.
