History


     Grace, sincerity and compassion, these words only begin to tell the story of Gloria Elliott. Add to these an indescribable talent and gift for ministry that has touched thousands from coast to coast.

As a young girl, Gloria dreamed of singing in the Revivaltime Choir, directed by Cyril McLellan, and featured on The Assemblies of God International Radio Broadcast. Evangelist C.M. Ward who was widely known for his eloquent speaking abilities, taught God’s Word with authority and power during that time. In 1967 she was granted the desire of her heart when she was asked to be the soloist for the program. After 4 years as soloist for Revivaltime, she was offered the opportunity to record with John T. Benson on the Impact label, in Nashville, Tennessee.

In 1970, she recorded an album with Bob MacKenzie and Ron Huff in London, England. Since that time she has recorded albums for many highly regarded music producers and arrangers, such as, Svante Widen from Sweden; Jesse Peterson in Nashville; Rick Powell and Bob Krogstad on the Zondervan label in Nashville, Tennessee and London, England.

During her career she worked with Ralph Carmichael at the Red Rocks Theater in Denver, Colorado, as soloist for the Assemblies of God General Council Sunday Evening Celebration. Other artists appearing on the program were Dino, The Hawaiians, Big John Hall and Ken Carter.

In 1980, Gloria experienced a devastating personal loss and illness that almost caused her to give-up the ministry. Then….a loving and gracious God restored her to new life and victory, and put new songs in her heart, and an opportunity to record again. Joe and Mark Stevens with Christian World, in Oklahoma City, reached out in love and compassion and began producing recordings for her. Don Johnson arranged and produced 4 recordings, one of which is a Christmas recording.


She has ministered in song at 9 General Councils of the Assemblies of God; at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California. She has ministered in many large arenas, but her calling, and real love, is for “Home Missions” and small rural churches.

Gloria has appeared on television with David Maines and 100 Huntley Street, the 700 Club, PTL Network, TBN, CTN, TCT, John Hagee TV Program, and the New Jim Bakker Show currently out of Branson, Missouri. Her songs have been aired on many radio programs, including, “Night Sounds” with host Bill Pierce.
