St. Matthew’s Church in Voorheesville will host Contemporary Christian Music Artist Matt Maher for an acoustic evening of worship and prayer on Wednesday, July 31, at 7 p.m.
Maher, a practicing Catholic who performs each year at the National Catholic Youth Conferences, has written and produced nine solo albums, three of which have reached the Top 25 Christian Albums Billboard chart.
Maher is a nine-time Grammy Nominee, whose chart-topping hits include: “Lord, I Need You,” (No. 4 on the charts and his first certified-platinum song), “Christ Is Risen,” “Because He Lives” (No. 1 on the charts) and “Your Grace Is Enough.” He was also named Songwriter of the Year at the 2015 GMA Dove awards and has written songs for Casting Crowns, Chris Tomlin, Third Day and Matt Redman.
Maher, who was born in Newfoundland and lives in the United States, has performed “Lord, I Need You” before a crowd of nearly four million people, which included Pope Francis, for World Youth Day 2013 in Rio, Brazil. Maher also has participated numerous times in the “March For Life” in Washington D.C., and held a concert in St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City. In 2008, when Pope Benedict came to the United States, Maher was selected to lead the worship at the Rally for Youth and Seminarians in Yonkers.
Presale tickets are $30; $35 at the door and $50 for a VIP Q&A with early entrance.
