The Blackwood Gospel Quartet will give a concert in the sanctuary of the Northfield United Methodist Church on Friday night, July 17, at 7p.m.

No admission is required, although a free-will love offering will be collected for the group.

The original Blackwood Brothers Quartet was formed in 1934 in the hills of Mississippi, with Roy, Doyle, James, and Roy's oldest son, R.W. Blackwood.

Their dedication and effort to spread the Gospel in song has left a great heritage and blessed the lives of many people.

Since that early formation, the group has won contests and awards, sung thousands of concerts, and appeared on many television shows. The dedication of Roy, James, and R.W. Blackwood continues today through the hearts and lives of the Blackwood Gospel Quartet.

They still sing the traditional close harmony quartet style music the Blackwood's are famous for. You may visit their website BGQmusic.com for more information and samples of their music. Please join us for this exciting event!

Note: The Friday Night Community Dinner held at the Methodist Church fellowship hall will begin at 5:30 that night (only), instead of our regular 6 p.m. starting time.
