Benediction was one of the finest, most polished summer music groups to ever represent Fort Wayne Bible College. Comprised of Rick g75 and Judy fs75 Engle and Bob and Susi g71 Jones, this group sang throughout the midwest in the summer of 1975. All except Bob were veteran Singing Collegian members.
Prior to touring the group did some recording in the Witmer Recording Studio. Stephen Walley was asked to do several arrangements and put a side group together to record tracks for the summer group. Jay Platte engineered these sessions.
