Donnelly was as surprised as anyone when someone representing Christian recording artist Rebecca St. James called his small-town church, asking if she could sing there.
“Rebecca St. James is one of the biggest stars in Christian music,” Donnelly says. “We didn’t expect it. It was out of the blue.”
But it all panned out, and St. James will be at Grace Community Church in Overbrook on Monday.
It’s part of SHE (Safe, Healthy, Empowered), a gathering of Christian women that is hitting sites across the country. The Overbrook event, which begins at 7 p.m., follows recent tour stops in the much larger cities of Macon, Ga., and Panama City, Fla.
(...)Donnelly says church members are excited.
“You don’t get an opportunity to see Rebecca St. James very often,” he says.
General-admission tickets are available for $18 by calling (785) 793-2141. More information can be found at www.sheevent.com.
Overbrook is 30 miles southwest of Lawrence. The church is located
at 310 E. Eighth St., on the eastern edge of Overbrook along U.S.
Highway 56.
