Central Baptist to host I AM THEY

Central Baptist Church will host the contemporary Christian music band, I AM THEY, on Sunday, August 27 at 6:00pm. I Am They’s unique sound and uplifting worship will be an experience that you won’t want to miss! This event is non-ticketed and free for the community.
 
I AM THEY began as a worship team based out of a community of churches in Carson City, Nevada. Their pop-acoustic-worship sound is comprised of Abbie Parker (vocals), Jon McConnell (vocals/guitar/keys), Matt Hein (vocals/guitar/mandolin), Justin Shinn (keys/banjo), and Sara Palmer (drums). The name I Am They comes from the Bible in John Chapter 17. “In that chapter,” shares Sara Palmer, “Jesus is praying for his disciples and refers to them as ‘they.’”
 
I Am They released its self-titled debut album in January 2015 which included the popular songs “From the Day” and “Here’s My Heart.” In August 2015, I Am They earned a Dove Award nomination for New Artist of the Year. Their newest hit single, “Crown Him,” was released in April of this year, with the intent to “magnify and glorify God and crown Him as King over everything; our struggles, our burdens, our victories – even the songs we sing.”
