A STEP-UP ENTERTAINMENT

TONYA BAKER

Background --

Since she can remember, Ms. Baker has been surrounded by music! One of her earliest memories is of singing "Now I Can Journey On," in the church choir in a trio with her parents, in Dayton, Ohio.

"More than just another singer, God wants someone whose life will be a testimony of His goodness and grace toward His people. I believe people are looking for a life and not just another song. That is what empowers me to not only sing for Him and His glory, but to live for Him as well."

Tonya recognizes that it will take the anointing of God to truly minister to people and change their hearts and minds. She longs to draw people closer to God through her singing and songwriting and let them know that He truly is a personal God, concerned about their lives and everyday affairs.

Previous Experience --

Singing since the age of 11, Tonya knows that it is God who has brought her to this place in her life and given her an assignment: to minister His word to the world through song.

Tonya has been a guest soloist on recording projects for Leon Wilkinson and Friends (1992), with the Littlejohn Brothers Gospel Youth Workshop Choirs (1986 - 1992), as a member of Keith Leak and DWC (1987 - 1992), and as a member of its praise teams and church choir.

Current Activity --

Tonya continually ministers at church conferences, women's conferences, prayer breakfasts and concerts throughout the Ohio area. Most recently, she appeared as a musical guest, in concert with Minister Ben Tankard and Christian comedian Jonathan Slocumb.

Currently, Tonya is Minister of Music, Worship and Arts at Joshua Christian Ministries in Centerville, Ohio. She also serves the youth ministry, Jubilation!
