On October 16, Hospitals of Hope will hold its 2nd annual benefit concert to support our international medical mission work. This year’s concert will feature popular Christian band Waterdeep, talented singer/songwriter Justin McRoberts, and SHEL, a neo-acoustic quartet of sisters.
Tickets, which are $12 or $10 each for groups of 10 or more, can be purchased online at http://hospitalsofhope.org/concert.htm or at the door the night of the concert. The concert will be held at Maranatha Worship Center, at 888 S. Webb Road in Wichita. Doors open at 6:30, and the concert will begin at 7:30. For more information, contact the Hospitals of Hope office at 316.262.0964 or via email at info@hospitalsofhope.org.
Waterdeep, composed of husband and wife team Don and Lori Chaffer, is an independent Christian band which recently moved to Nashville, TN from the Kansas City area. Formed in 1995, Waterdeep has included several other musicians over the years and has released over ten albums. Waterdeep is best known for a joint project with 100 Portraits that yielded the worship album Enter the Worship Circle— reported by some media outlets as the biggest-selling independent Christian album of all time. Released in 1999, it included original worship songs such as “You Are So Good To Me,” “I Will Not Forget You,” and “You Have Redeemed My Soul.”
Justin McRoberts is a highly respected singer, songwriter and speaker who has carved out a niche for himself in the independent music scene. He is one of those rare artists who blends artistry, honesty and humor almost seamlessly. McRoberts’ most recent release, Deconstruction (2008), is laden with the same disarming honesty he is known for both in his recordings as well as his live performances.
Shel, of Ft Collins, Colorado, glides effortlessly atop the lilting, sublime voices of the Holbrook sisters, Sarah, Hannah, Eva and Liza. But Shel's appeal goes way beyond the vocals. These gals are exceptional musicians as well, with each member playing an array of instruments including violin, electric bass, piano, mandolin to drums.
