Five-time GRAMMY nominee to headline Downtown Rescue Mission's 50th anniversary celebration
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) — The Downtown Rescue Mission announced its headliner for its 50th anniversary celebration.
The Mission announced that five-time GRAMMY nominee and award-winning Christian artist Matthew West will headline the celebration on September 16 at the Von Braun Center Saturn Ballroom.
The celebration marks the rescue mission's 50 years of ministry and service to help the homeless in North Alabama and surrounding communities.
The event is said to feature two ticketed events: A lunch featuring comedian Mike Williams and a dinner with a special performance by West and more entertainment from Williams.
'This is a celebration of fifty years of lives being transformed,' Jonathan Walsh, Executive
Vice President of Development, said. 'Having Matthew West join us is special because his music
reflects the themes of redemption and hope that align with the Mission's purpose. It brings
visibility to the cause we've worked toward since 1975.'
All proceeds of the event will benefit the rescue mission to help provide shelter, meals and recovery programs for those in the community.
