Emmanuel Church Worship is an Irish Christian worship collective from Craigavon, Northern Ireland. The church vision is to rewrite the story of Craigavon, Ireland and the nations with the good news of the Kingdom of God. As a worship community they seek to serve this vision through worship and by singing songs that have been birthed from within the church that exalt the name of Jesus and bless the church. With a heart to write songs of their own, Emmanuel Church Worship began its songwriting journey through its youth collective capturing the essence of their worship. Their indie folk sound is organic and authentic, inspired by worship communities such as ‘United Pursuit’ and ‘Housefires’. Songs, such as ‘Come Again’ and ‘Rest’ have been sung in churches across Ireland and further afield. During the past couple of years Emmanuel Church Worship has written and recorded a collection of songs which were released within the ‘Lockdown Sessions’. These, along with many new songs, were recorded as a live album in the summer of 2022 in Emmanuel’s own Glass Space. ’Joy of the Lord’, the first release from their upcoming live worship album, features Hollie McCullough as worship leader. The uplifting song is a declaration of the joy found in following God both in the good and hard circumstances.
