In a heartfelt display of compassion and solidarity, country singer Thomas Rhett paused his concert in Nashville over the weekend, urging the audience to join him in prayer for a fan facing a medical emergency. The incident occurred on Saturday night at Bridgestone Arena when Rhett noticed a fan named Terry in distress and promptly called for medical assistance.
During the performance, the “Angels” hitmaker made a somber announcement to the crowd, expressing concern for Terry’s well-being. As a stretcher was swiftly ushered out of the concert venue, Rhett sought assistance from any medical personnel in the building, highlighting the seriousness of the situation.
In videos circulating online, the scene unfolds as Rhett, with genuine concern, addresses the audience, emphasizing the need for collective prayer. “Father God, we just ask for healing over Terry,” he prayed. Acknowledging the divine role of the ultimate physician and healer, Rhett called for support for Terry’s family, who were undoubtedly in a state of distress.
“God, we know that you are a miracle worker,” Rhett continued, emphasizing faith and hope in the face of uncertainty. He rallied the audience, encouraging everyone to continue praying for Terry and his family even after leaving the concert venue.
The emotional moment reached its peak as fans, moved by the sincerity of Rhett’s plea, broke into a spontaneous chant of “Terry, Terry.” The sense of unity and shared concern for a fellow concertgoer permeated the arena.
