Souvenirs Worship is a worship collective led by our very own Jamie Rodwell and Tom Field. As a church we partner with Souvenirs as they seek to write and produce worship songs that would be a blessing to the global Church. They are currently preparing to record a new album later in the year.

On Saturday, June 15th at 7PM Souvenirs Worship are hosting a night of worship at The Street Church in Wellington. We’ll worship together with some of their NEW songs and some of Souvenir's old songs and they will also share some of the heart and vision for their next album. It is a fundraiser, and any donation would be greatly appreciated so whether you can give one dollar or more please come and join!

Living in money chaos feels like being caught in a fast-flowing river. Before coming to CAP, families in unmanageable debt describe a feeling of drowning. People swim bravely… but are soon exhausted, losing hope. Together with the church, CAP prevents New Zealanders being swept away.

The Street Church has partnered with CAP for over 10 years. CAP's Wellington fundraising dinner allows you to join with like-minded people to release New Zealanders from debt and poverty — into lives of fullness and freedom. The dinner is being held on July 27th at the InterContinental. To register, visit the website or app.

Our children were reminded they can already play a part in what God is doing.

We are at a decisive moment as a nation, a time when the agreement by which tangata whenua and tangata tiriti live together is being called into question. As a church community, we can grow in our understanding and engagement in this conversation along with our brothers and sisters among churches within Wellington.

I’m Laurence, and look forward to partnering with several churches and organisations as a student counsellor in 2024. I am privileged to be studying for my Bachelor of Counselling at Bethlehem Tertiary Institute and I am in my third and final year of my degree course. I am offering 100 hours of free confidential counselling during 2024 and will be providing the service at Brandon Street Practice in Wellington’s CBD.

The last few years have certainly been more than a challenge for us within our churches and communities. There has rarely been such financial and mental pressure on all of us and a sense of division within our society here in Aotearoa and worldwide. There used to be a time when seeking some sort of therapy carried some stigma; however, it is now so commonplace that especially our youth and young adults are (generally) very comfortable with discussing this openly. Although Romans 12 tells us to renew our minds, there are times when we need help to stop conforming to the patterns of this world. My degree course is Biblically based, and I look forward to meeting those who want that extra support.

We serve an almighty and all-powerful God and the tool he has given us to engage with him, is prayer. We want to be a church with a deep culture of prayer, seeing God do extraordinary things in and through us

In Acts, the disciples gathered together constantly in prayer for 10 days after the ascension of Jesus, culminating in Pentecost—the birth of the church. Their cry was a simple one “Come Holy Spirit.” We are going to be joining with the wider church of Aotearoa to do the same in the lead-up to Pentecost this year.

WHEN: 9th to 19th May. For more info check out the video here.

For a number of years, many people from different church traditions and movements have been planning for a new Christian College in Wellington.
