An evening with music artist, Jules Riding
2025-05-11 19:00 - 20:00 | St Stephens Anglican Church, 61 Tahunanui Frive, Nelson, Nelson, 7011, New Zealand
We’re excited to invite you to a special evening of music and worship with Jules Riding, an internationally recognized Christian musician, on Sunday 11th May at 7:00pm at St Stephens Community Church, 61 Tahunanui Drive.
Jules Riding has spent over twenty years ministering through music, travelling extensively across New Zealand and to more than 30 countries worldwide. His journey began with the St. Paul’s Singers in Auckland, and over the years, he has written songs featured in Songs of the Nations, Songs of the Kingdom, and New Harvest songbooks. His work has also been recorded by Scripture in Song, Maranatha Music, and others.
Jules has a rich history in both Christian and secular music, with accolades including multiple New Zealand Music Awards for Gospel Album of the Year and recognition through the APRA Silver Scroll Awards. His musical style is often compared to James Taylor’s – mellow, thoughtful, and deeply moving.
Alongside his music, Jules has also authored poetry volumes and a devotional study titled The Father Seeks Worshipers, designed for churches and small groups. His heart for worship and his desire to prepare believers for the return of Christ shine through in his songs and message.
This will be a wonderful evening to invite friends, family, and anyone who would be blessed by uplifting music and testimony. Admission is free, and a Koha offering will be taken to support Jules’ ministry.
For more information about Jules, please visit his website here https://www.julesriding.com/ His music can be previewed on http://www.youtube.com/julesriding
