Announcing the Re-formation of Yielded Ministries
Yielded, formerly a female trio, has completed re-formation as a mixed trio. Based out of Durham, North Carolina, Yielded was established in May 2002. Yielded ministers not only in Southern Gospel Music, but in sharing personal experiences and testimony as well. Yielded’s slogan: “Walking, Talking, Singing, and Praising, in the name of Jesus!” is not just a slogan, but also a way of life for each member of the group.
Each member of Yielded has a vast musical background and a burning desire to minister in song and lead souls to Christ.
