Originally from the Lehr, ND area, Rod fondly remembers Sunday evenings after church with family and friends gathered around the piano for lively sing-alongs. Rod always knew he wanted to sing.

Two favorite quartets are the Blackwoods and Cathedrals, who have provided inspiration for many of the songs the Master's Plan performs in concert.

He and his wife Patty live in Bismarck and have three grown children and have recently become grandparents.

Duane was born in Rugby, ND. He grew up on a farm northwest of Rugby and graduated from Mayville State College with a Bachelors degree in education. He has always enjoyed music and often sang with his brother and sisters.

Duane and his wife, Shirley, have three children. He has been employed by Job Service of North Dakota for 30 years. He and his family lived in Williston, ND for 22 years prior to moving to Bismarck in 2005.

Michael was raised in McClusky, ND and has always enjoyed singing and music. He graduated from Minot State University with degrees in Music Education and German language.

After teaching music in Hatton, ND for three years, he moved to Bismarck and is currently employed as a German teacher in the Bismarck public school system.

Michael joined The Master's Plan in January 2006. His favorite gospel group is the Happy Goodmans.

TyAnn grew up in McClusky, ND and was playing piano and organ for church, school, and special events by the age of thirteen, continuing while raising four boys. She began playing for The Master's Plan in 1998 and feels blessed to be a part of the group.

Favorite verses are found in John 14:2-3. What a promise! And what a wonderful source for so many beautiful songs.

TyAnn resides in Bismarck with husband Bruce. She has four sons who live in Bismarck. This allows "Grandma Ty" to spend quality time with two young grandchildren (with a third on the way!). She is also employed full time in the health insurance industry.
