Grammy-Nominated Musician Announces He Will Help Plant Church Near Austin, Texas

Last week, Grammy-nominated musician and Christian singer Tauren Wells announced he and his family will be launching a new church plant in Georgetown, Texas — which is located near Texas’s capitol city of Austin.

As Christian Headlines previously reported, “The new church, called the Church of Whitestone, will be located in Georgetown, a city about 30 miles north of Austin.”

Tauren Wells initially made the announcement on his Instagram, saying, “Well, our party of six, is setting out on the adventure of a lifetime, packing up our lives in Houston, and following our calling to love, serve, and inspire the city and surrounding communities of north Austin, Texas.”

“Through the planting of a vibrant, life-giving, community of faith, Church of Whitestone, we are assuming our calling as Lead Pastors of the church that God placed in our heart more than 10 years ago,” he wrote. “The vision is clear, ‘helping people discover their God-authored identity through wholehearted relationship with Jesus,’ and the time is now.”

Tauren Wells concluded by saying, “We are thrilled to call Georgetown home and can’t wait to join in on what God is already actively doing in and through the city. For more info visit yourwhitestone.org and follow us on IG and Twitter @yourwhitestone.”

Church of Whitestone. We will be planting in Georgetown, Texas, in the Georgetown area, and we cannot wait. This has been in our hearts for years. “
