My name is Phyllis English. I am a native born Georgian, USA. I am a born again Christian and an ordained minister, a Gospel music singer and musician. I sing with a Gospel music group called "Destination" and we travel the south and enjoy sharing the music, the love and the message of the "Good News" everywhere we go.

GROWING UP

I was born in Georgia, but I was raised in Opelika in a small cotton mill village in Pepperell, Alabama. My Dad worked in the Pepperell Manufacturing Company, a cotton mill that made Lady Pepperell sheets. My Dad and Mom sang in a Gospel Quartet, called "The Goldenaires" on weekends during my childhood and I began to sing with them when I was six years old. Those early years turned into a music career for life for me.

THE MUSIC

I won my first talent contest at the age of 12 at the Lee County Fair in Opelika, AL. I sang all through my school years with Sandra Hamilton and Sharon Tucker, The Three Messqueteers" LOL!!! and we won many talent contests.
After I married and had children, I entered a talent contest at the Nevada Lounge in Atlanta, GA and won it and the band hired me. That was my first professional singing gig. Through the years, I sang and traveled with many different groups. I worked for Conway Twitty, sang with George Jones, Travis Tritt and many other great artists. I sang at the Buckboard Country Music Showcase for many years, with AJaye O'Bryant and Swamp Creek. AJaye and I are singing in the same gospel group, "Destination", today.
During my career I won "Female Vocalist of the Year" by the Atlanta Society of Entertainers in 1985 and "Entertainer of the Year" in 1987. I was awarded "Entertainer Lifetime Achievement" in 2011 and was inducted into the Atlanta Country Music Hall of Fame in November of 2013.
It's been a wonderful journey and I have enjoyed the ride and have some wonderful memories!!!
I'm still singing Gospel music with "Destination" and loving it!!! I'll keep singing until The LORD calls me home.

NATIVE AMERICAN

I am part Cherokee and part Creek Indian and I make Prayer Wheels, which is derived from Native American Medicine Wheels. The LORD gave me the idea from Acts 19, where people took pieces of Paul's garments to use as aprons or handkerchiefs as prayer cloths when they needed miracles. I make them by
hand and I pray over them and anoint them with holy oil and ask God to bless the person who receives it. My daughter makes Indian jewelry and I will be selling it on this website. That page is still under construction and is not ready yet but will be very soon.
