Music
The ONE Collective is a group of like-minded musicians from Atlantic Canada with a collective heart that burns for Jesus and longs for a revival in this generation. They represent a cross-section of the church in our region, and are united in their desire to experience a fresh outpouring of God on this generation. Their humble spirits, paired with capable leadership, are poised to set the stage for a powerful worship experience together. Come Holy Spirit!
