Generation Rising

Date Added: Tuesday 3rd October 2006
Generation Rising

Local Christian Band, Immerse, have released a CD of eight original songs for young Christians.

The CD has been recorded and produced by the Revd Danny Wignall, associate vicar at Christ Church, Long Furlong, Abingdon who told the DOOR: 'The band have emerged from a youth congregation at The Peachcroft Christian Centre, and I believe that there is real song writing talent here.

'The songwriters are passionate about seeing a new generation of young people inspired and equipped to live radical lives.'

Tracks such as Holy God, Awesome One, and Generation Rising (title track) combine soulful melody and stirring lyrics that have already received accolade from the congregations at Long Furlong.

Mr Wignall says: 'All the songs have been “road tested” in corporate worship and are really owned by the congregation.'

The CD costs £6.99 and all profits from the sale of Generation Rising will go to Tearfund's HIV/AIDS Disaster Appeal. 

See the web site for details or call Christ Church's office on 01235 539172.
