Vernon and Betty Klaudt are from the Original Klaudt Indian Family that were seen for years on the Sunday Morning Gospel TV Shows. They perform vocally and instrumentally in close family har- mony and appear in full native Indian costumes which children will never forget. The professional instrumental back-up for the group includes acoustic piano, strings, synthesizer, and electric bass gui- tar. Vernon, "Chief Little Soldier," has traditionally been a favorite of audiences with his memorable ren- dition of "How Great Thou Art." A moving experience is the "Indian Version of the 23rd Psalm" and the Indian Sign Language. A music ministry began for this family when they were won to the "White man's God" through the missionary work of Dr. Hall and daughter, Dora on the Fort Berthold Reservation on North Dakotas Missouri River. The Indians great grandfathers, One Feather and Little Soldier, fought in Custer's Battle in 1876 at the Little Big Horn River in Montana serving as scouts for the U.S. Cavalry. Lewis and Clark spent the winter with the Arickaras on the North Western Expedition of 1804. Sacajawea, a young Indiana girl among the Arickaras, served as a KLAUDT FAMILY guide and interpreter for the expe- dition across the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. The Indian Family are all music majors for a professional sound, but the musical message is a sin- cere style humbled by a real "call of God." It is a labor of love based upon a commitment and devotion to Christ by each member of the family to meet needs of all families to whom they minister. All family members share a personal witness of God's direction, inspiration, and healing of their lives. Vernon has served as a Senior Associate Pastor of one of America's largest churches and holds a Divinity degree from Candler School of Theology at Emory University in Atlanta. They have sung in the Grand Ole Oprey Ryman Auditorium, Nashville, the John F. Kennedy Center, Washington, D.C. and the Braves Stadium in Atlanta. Former President Jimmy Carter proclaimed the Klaudt Indians Ambassadors of Good Will for the state of Georgia. Betty uses her talents further with music instruction in her Atlanta music studio. Vernon, Chief Little Soldier, was named for his great grandfather who took over command of the Aricara Indians when Chief Bloody Knife was killed at Custers Battle at the Little Big Horn River in Montana. The name is inscribed on the Monument at Little Big Horn. The Indians have traveled in all 50 states appearing in churches, fairs, Indian celebrations and mis- sions. Their travels have taken them around the world to Austria, England, Germany, Switzerland, Israel, China, Japan, Korea and Thailand. They travel thousands of miles a year in their diesel motor- coach for restful travel on extended trips. They have recorded in Hollywood Studios to produce their albums and tapes that have re- ceived national acclaim. Television guest appearances are made by the Indians in native costumes on na- tional color TV specials. The German press referred to them as "Hollywood talented, but deeply religious." Along with their busy schedule, the family has earned seven college degrees from Mercer, Emory, Oglethorpe, Lee, Northern State, Georgia State and the University of Georgia in the fields of music, the- ology, psychology, administration, and education. Vernon has served 20 years in public and Christian education as a teacher and princi- pal. Missionaries To Speak Sunday Rev. and Mrs. Ronald B.
