Gateway Music Ministry began in 2017 as a Southern Gospel Quartet in Southern California. After a couple of years, one member retired to another state, and another was diagnosed with a terminal illness being unable to continue. Kevin then started performing as a soloist to keep the ministry going. In 2019, during a Sunday morning service, Kevin invited two friends to join him for one song. What started as a one-time moment grew into something special.
Kevin Bailey, Pam Hunter-Layne, and Patti Miller-Whitley comprise our team. The three have known each other since their youth, singing in different ministries, and God brought them together as a team. According to Kevin, “Each of us was raised in families where gospel music held great significance. Our upbringing involved active participation in music ministries across the Pacific Southwest, instilling within us a profound love for ministry through music. A passion that God has deeply rooted within each of our hearts.
While Gateway performs at various concert venues year-round, our primary passion lies in serving local church communities. We believe that through our music and personal testimonies, we can deeply connect with individuals, touching their hearts and leading them to a profound understanding of salvation. This calling drives us, as the rewards of witnessing spiritual transformations far outweigh fleeting applause at concerts.
At Gateway, we endeavor to deliver a musical experience that encompasses a wide range of styles and genres. With the musical preferences of churches constantly evolving, we are grateful for the opportunity to offer a diverse selection of music for our programs. However, above all else, the message conveyed through our music remains paramount. As a team, we meticulously examine the lyrics of each song to ensure their alignment with Scripture. Our process is straightforward: if the lyrics do not uphold Biblical integrity, the song is not considered suitable for our ministry.
We would be honored to share our music with you and are currently accepting bookings for church services, concerts, banquets, luncheons, and any other events you may be hosting.
We genuinely hope for the opportunity to collaborate with you in the near future.”
