They attend church at Taft Full Gospel Church, in Taft, TN,where her husband Kenny plays drums, and she sings with her pastor and his wife during services. She just recently was asked to join The Bloodline Trio,and is eager to go out into the world, and spread the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Kristi said just recently " I love my Mother, for always taking me to church, if it had not been for her, then I may not have ever loved music and the Lord. I pray the Lord will open many doors for Bloodline to go out into this world and minister to people about Jesus. I want to see people that may be down - lifted up, and souls that are lost - saved, and people praise God through song. I pray that we always keep our eyes upon him, because He is reason we sing. Everything we do, is all about him, and nothing about "self". I want to see lives touched, and people saved while we are on our journey!"

Bloodline's New Member 

We are so happy to introduce to you our beloved friend Anita Jo Walters! We are so blessed to have her as a new member of Bloodline. Anita Jo is a very talented and anointed gospel singer. She has been singing gospel music all of her life, and we are so blessed to have her as a friend, and as a member of Bloodline Trio! She makes her home in Centerville, TN (the hometown of Minnie Pearl). You can read her bio, that will be posted soon on our About us page. Anita and her husband Ron are just wonderful, and we are so happy to be able to join together, and lift up the name of Jesus Christ!

From Anita: God has allowed me to carry the message in song for many years. I begin at an early age singing with my parents, Wallace and Edith Petty also known as The Petty Family from a small town called Hohenwald TN. We traveled for over forty years until God called my mother home in 2004. 
Ron and I have continued in the ministry preaching and singing about the one true God, Jesus Christ. With the Lords help and inspiration, I have written and produced several albums, tapes and CD's. 
I was blessed in 2008 by being chosen Female Vocalist of the Year by the United States Association of Gospel Entertainers and Musicians.
Our goal is to continue praising the Lord Jesus Christ in everything we do and everywhere we go. I feel the message we sing about will lift up and encourage all who hear....
I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations Psalms 89:1
