Amy Grant, who was injured in a bike accident last month, has postponed all her upcoming Fall tour dates to allow more time for recovery.
The change in schedule was revealed in a statement from Grant's manager Jennifer Cooke, who said, "Amy is getting stronger every day. Just as she did after her heart surgery, we are amazed at how fast she heals. However, although she is doing much better, we have made the difficult decision to postpone her fall tour so she can concentrate on her recovery and build her stamina."
"She wants to be able to give 100% when she tours and, unfortunately, we do not think that will be the case by the time rehearsals start for the fall dates," Cooke added.
Cooke said Grant will resume touring with her Christmas tour with Michael W. Smith and her annual "Christmas At The Ryman" residency with her husband Vince Gill.
"Amy would like to extend her gratitude for all the many good wishes and prayers offered since the accident. She feels the impact of the collective good will extended her way," the manager added.
Grant suffered cuts and bruises after she fell while cycling with a friend near the Harpeth Hills Golf Course in Nashville on July 27.
The 61-year-old "Baby Baby" singer was discharged after a brief hospitalization at Vanderbilt Medical Center. Doctors have ordered additional recovery time at home.
Grant had already postponed her shows for August as per the doctor's orders.

Cole Swindell recently released a video for his record-breaking single "She Had Me At Heads Carolina," a track from his Stereotype.
The Spidey Smith-directed video, featuring Jo Dee Messina, was filmed at a Downtown Nashville bar in Printer's Alley. The clip also features songwriters Tim Nicholas and Mark D. Sanders, and Swindell's girlfriend Courtney Little.
The visual shows Swindell and his friends entering the bar to have some fun, not aware that it was karaoke night. After being served a few drinks by Messina, the friends take part in the dance party and take to the stage to sing the tune karaoke-style.
"'Heads Carolina, tails California' / Maybe she'd fall for a boy from South Georgia / She's got the bar in the palm of her hand / And she's a '90s country fan like I am," Swindell sings.
Swindell told Taste of Country Nights he wanted to write the song because he is a "huge fan" of Messina, and he reached out to the songwriters and Messina herself before releasing it.
"I just reached out to Jo Dee Messina this past weekend, making sure she was all good and knowing that I'm a huge fan and would not even have this without her," Swindell said soon after the release. "I told her, too, that I want her to be a part of it, as much of it or as little of it as she wants to, because she's the original."
