Event Description

Christopher Wright

Christopher Wright has shared the stage in concert ministry with many artists, including Lincoln Brewster, Jared Anderson, Chris
Rice, Ginny Owens, Tree63, Michelle Tumes, Andrew Peterson, NewSong,
GLAD, and 4Him. Besides his own recording projects, Christopher’s songs
and voice can be heard on recordings by Integrity Music, Maranatha!
Music, Christ for the Nations, and Sovereign Grace (PDI) Ministries. As a
father of five, including a daughter born with multiple handicaps
(taken home by her Heavenly Father after 15 years), Christopher writes
and sings from a deep well of joy and sorrow. 

In worship ministry, the Lord allowed Christopher
the privilege of leading over 80,000 people in worship from the main
stage of both Creation Festivals 2004 and 2005 in Mt. Union, Pennsylvania. He also assisted Pastor Harry Thomas with their powerfully moving
communion and candlelighting
services, prior to the music & ministry of Michael W. Smith and the
Newsboys. Over the years, he has led worship for countless high school
and college chapels including those at Eastern College, Nyack College,
and Wheaton College. With or without his band, he leads a number of
annual men's retreats and couple's retreats around the country. He is
also grateful for his relationship with Joni and Friends
(the ministry of Joni Eareckson Tada to families affected by
disability), who have asked him to lead worship for their family
retreats over the years.

After serving nine years as Pastor of Worship at Calvary Fellowship Church
in Downingtown, PA, Christopher has now returned to the road to be a
blessing not only to the local church but to those who have yet to know
the Savior's love.

Christopher resides with his wife Jeannie and their children in Exton, Pennsylvania.
