Holy Grounds Coffee House presentsL Music on a Summer's Night

Holy Grounds Coffee House, the beloved monthly gathering of faith, music, and community hosted at Cranbury United Methodist Church, announces its summer concert event: Music on a Summer's Night, featuring acclaimed Christian singer-songwriters Wendy Schettig and Jim Winder.

The evening takes place on Friday, August 7, 2026, with doors opening at 6:30 PM at 21 N. Main Street, Cranbury, NJ. Admission is free, with RSVP required. Tickets are available at HolyGroundsNJ.org.

Wendy Schettig is a Philadelphia-area singer, songwriter, and fingerpicking guitarist whose music weaves together Americana, folk, and Christian storytelling in a style that has drawn comparisons to Judy Collins, Joan Baez, and Janis Ian. Having picked up the guitar at age seven and begun writing songs by age nine, Schettig has spent decades sharing her deeply personal journey of faith through original music at churches, retreats, festivals, and coffeehouses across the region. Her three studio albums — including her most recent release in February 2026 — reflect a voice shaped by both hardship and redemption, and audiences consistently describe her performances as moving, authentic, and joy-filled.

Jim Winder, a Bridgewater, NJ-based singer-songwriter and storyteller, has been performing in churches and Christian coffeehouses across the United States since 2000. Leading his band, Jim Winder and The Race, he crafts original songs grounded in Scripture in a style frequently compared to James Taylor. In addition to his solo and band performances, Winder is known for his professionally produced theatrical concert events, including Journey to the Celestial City — a musical retelling of John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress — and Blessed Assurance, drawn from the text of 1 John. He has recorded three CDs and continues to bring his message of Gospel hope to audiences throughout New Jersey and beyond.

Holy Grounds Coffee House is a non-profit ministry of Cranbury United Methodist Church, offering free monthly events that celebrate faith through live music, films, good coffee, and great desserts. The ministry is open to all and is funded entirely by generous donations.
