Terry MacAlmon (born May 12, 1955) is an American Christian singer, songwriter, musician, recording artist, worship leader and author.
[2] In 2010 he received the GMA UK Lifetime Achievement Award for Exceptional Contribution to worship music.
[4] At birth the doctor informed MacAlmon's parents that he would likely not live through his first month, due to Cranial Stenosis (a premature closure of the soft spot in his head).
"[6] In the following 17 years, MacAlmon served in music ministry positions for several churches and traveled in concert work across America.
After moving his family to Colorado Springs, in December 1990, MacAlmon started a church and soon fell upon hard times.
After eight years of trying and waiting on what MacAlmon calls 'the Lord's promotion', he claims to have heard God speaking to him again, in August 1998.
He recalls, "God said to gather the worshipers, for He wanted to bring an open heaven to Colorado Springs."
At the end of 2019, MacAlmon founded a new ministry, next to New Glory International, which he called Sing Over America, after the eponymous event that he is organizing in May 2020.
MacAlmon says he hopes that this will set a series of gatherings in motion throughout the U.S.[11] During the first Sing Over America event in May 2020, MacAlmon was joined by famous singers and bands, such as Don Moen, Paul Wilbur, Gateway Worship, Nathaniel Bassey, Vocal Majority Joni Lamb, and The Daystar Singers.
In April 2010, after two years of silence, MacAlmon came forward with a letter, announcing that he would return to ministry in May 2010,[15] which resulted in the start of New Glory International.
