STAR 88.3, Huntington to present Newsboys in concert

Huntington, Ind.-STAR 88.3 and Huntington University have partnered to present an evening of music and message with the Newsboys at 6 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 18, at Fort Wayne's Allen County War Memorial Coliseum.

The Newsboys, with Michael Tait, have teamed up with Global Tribe to travel the U.S. to bring an event called "Reach" to various cities. "Reach" partners with local radio stations, community ministries and neighborhood churches to bring the Gospel message to towns across America and beyond. This ministry is wrapped up in a Newsboys concert that includes a Gospel presentation followed by a call for new believers to connect with a local church.

Seventh Day Slumber, Meinmotion, Bread of Stone and In Honor of Him will join the Newsboys for "Reach's" Fort Wayne event.

No tickets are needed for "Reach." A suggested donation of $10 will be taken at the door, although no one will be turned away for the inability to give. Organizers also will collect nonperishable food items for the Associated Churches Food Bank.

Prior to the concert, STAR 88.3, the Associated Churches of Allen County and Huntington University are sponsoring the Share the Love Food Drive "Mini-Tour" on Oct. 5-10.

Newsboys has 14 albums, a score of Grammy and Dove awards, seven gold albums and 21 number one songs to their credit.
