Nicole C Mullen to sing at Pittwater

This is your invitation to hear an inspirational artist perform

Nicole C Mullen will be performing some of her songs at Pittwater Uniting Church on Sunday 23 August at 6:30pm during the evening service. This is a special extra on her tour. Come and hear her, bring a friend, and be encouraged and uplifted. There is no charge.

Nicole’s music has been an inspiration to Christians and non believers alike, writing songs such as “Redeemer”, “Talk About It”, and over five albums of impacting Gospel and Word-inspired music. Mother of two, founder of a youth mentoring and dance club, she’s received eight Dove awards acknowledging her for her contributions in the Christian music industry. Nicole has a powerful ministry amongst young women, mentoring girls from age 7-16, and managing a dance school where the girls have opportunity to perform alongside her.
