Collect EP
In 2022 we recorded the Collect EP. The album was a chance to record four songs that had been written within our communities. They started as prayers, then riffs, then songs: they express a wrestling with and a longing to respond to God’s love in our neighourhoods and to look to God for redemptive work in the face of huge challenges faced by our planet and our church and our own hears.
This record was compiled with our wider Renew Communities family.
Reconciled
In 2018 we recorded Reconciled. This album served as a snapshot of a special moment reflecting two important changes for us: Our continuing journey as a pioneer mission unit in the Anglican Church, and the sending of ten beloved friends to re-plant St Jude’s - a dormant Anglican Church in Lyall Bay. It marked the beginning of a new season of church planting in our Renew Communities movement.
This album is about the reconciliation that Christ brings in every sphere of our lives and our world. Reconciliation between us and God, between old and new, and between peoples in Aotearoa. Reconciled draws from ancient liturgy and scripture, and our unique experience as a community trying to reconcile the broken things in our central Wellington neighbourhood.
