Cost of Ministry
We have been blessed to be able to truly
say, “The Lord is our Provider”! We travel
on a love-gift offering basis, trusting God to
meet our needs through the generosity of
His people. If you prefer not to have a freewill offering, please let us know and we will
negotiate enough to cover our needs.
Variety of Events
Over the past several years the Wissmanns
have ministered at a wide range of events
including: church services and functions,
banquets, Bible camps, state and local
conventions, county fairs, city festivals, and
Christian school assemblies.

“WOW!!!! what an awesome family you all
have. It is so wonderful to see families such as
yours working together for the sake of Christ.
Your harmony is good, but we sense the
harmony in spirit as well, which is so
important.”
-Linda
“We so very much enjoyed your performance.
What a blessing it was to see you, as a family,
share the gospel through your music. I am
certain many were blessed by the evening as
we were. You are an encouragement to fellow
believers and such a witness to those who
don't know Christ.”
-Julie
“What bright shining countenances and what a
testimony for the Lord you all have as you
travel around sharing His praises in this dark
world! Stand strong!“
-Crystal
”He has put a new song in my
mouth; Praise to our God; Many
will see it and fear, and will trust
in the LORD. Blessed is that man
who makes the LORD his trust.”

Mission Statement
Family History
In the world we live there are more and
more broken lives and broken families.
People drifting without a purpose, or caught
in the nets of despair, no hope in sight. The
timeless message of the sacrificial love of
our Savior Jesus Christ and the lifechanging power of His Word, the Bible, hold
the only true lasting answers.
Loren and Gloria met while preparing to
travel with a music ministry team in 1977.
After being called to marriage in 1980, they
moved to Seward, Nebraska to seek the
Lord for His will in their lives as a couple.
Our hearts’ desire is to honor the Lord
Jesus Christ by serving Him together as a
family. Through proclaiming His great plan
of Salvation through song and testimony, it
is our hope and our prayer to see lost souls
come to trust Christ, as well as Christians
encouraged in the Lord, and families
strengthened for His glory.
The Lord used Psalms 127 to open their
hearts to welcoming children and Proverbs
22:6 to the awesome responsibility of
training the children He would send.
Now, many years -- and 12 children -later, He again has called them to minister
as a team. Only this time it’s different. Each
of the team members are family -- sons
and daughters that the Lord has given
them. The Lord has laid on each of the
children’s hearts a portion of the vision He
first gave their parents: to praise and
testify of Him by using their skills and
talents in music.
The family first started sharing locally
through song and testimony in 1997, but
soon the Lord started opening doors to
share with a wider audience and through a
great variety of events and services.
While opportunities are increasing, the
family is eager to keep their message
uncompromising and true to God’s Word as
they have ability to minister in church
settings as well as secular events.
Through each musical concert the family
shares through humorous -- and sometimes
poignant -- personal testimonies of the
Lord’s work in their lives. Each of the
children are involved in some aspect of the
ministry. People are delighted to see the
family’s close knit relationships as they
encourage and interact with each other
throughout every program.
Music Style
The Wissmann family firmly believes that
music was given to praise and glorify the
Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, they endeavor
to keep a melodious and joyful undertone
throughout each song.
Playing a variety of Christian/Gospel music,
the family has chosen to make each song
creative with both instrumentation and
vocals. From the warm sweet sound of
young children blending harmonies, to the
more mature voices of the older siblings—
deep bass to high sopranos. The variety in
each program is exciting and fresh.
The array of instruments includes: guitar,
bass guitar, violin/fiddle, banjo, mandolin,
harmonicas, hammered dulcimer,
keyboard/piano, trumpet, flute, and harp.
Keeping everything with a Christian base,
the Wissmanns enjoy bluegrass, gospel,
original selections, patriotic numbers,
audience participation, and lots of good ole’
hymn singin’.
