The concert marks a triumphant, miraculous return for the Utah-born artist. Diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer in January 2026—the milestone year of America’s 250th anniversary—Wendy faced grueling surgical complications. Defying the odds, she is now completely cancer-free and ready to share her message of faith, hope and resilience.

Influenced by her family’s escape from post-WWII East Germany, Wendy’s deep love for freedom shines through her music. The family-friendly holiday show will feature traditional favorites alongside original tracks from her newly released album, “At This Christmas Time!” The project holds deep personal meaning, as the title track was inspired by a dream her daughter had about people holding hands around the world at Christmas. To bring this vision to life, Wendy recorded the album with members of the former Toby Keith's band and Lee Greenwood’s guitarist.
