let's wait
the wait tour
Worship Culture Writing Camps are designed to gather worshippers from around the world to build community, receive songs from heaven, and release them to nations. Our 2025 camp tour is themed The Wait, taken from the book of Acts 1: 4 & 8. Our desire for our camp is to build an appetite for waiting on the Holy Spirit and to inspire creativity. We’re believing God for a mighty move of the Spirit, that will cause us to echo sounds of revival!

In 2023, the Lord spoke to Sewa to start a Worship Culture Writing
Camp in Ottawa, Canada. With very little understanding of why, she stepped out in faith to launch the first camp in June 2023. About 20 songwriters from as far as Ireland gathered together with high expectations to write songs about Jesus. After the very last session, it became clear that camps were not only going to be marked with songs from heaven, but with Holy Spirit encounters.
In January 2024, Sewa went on to launch the second camp in Quebec, where songs like “Give Me Oil” and “Holy Ghost” were birthed. In August of 2024, it became evident that God’s mandate for camp is not for “hit” songs, but to receive, interpret and
release sounds of revival for nations across the world. Starting
in 2025, Worship Culture Writing Camps will be touring
nations from the UK, to Canada and the United States.
CAMP
Sewa is a singer/songwriter, worship leader
and Pastor at Campus Rush. She developed a
passion for songwriting in 2015, and has since
written and ministered songs like "Above
Your Name" and “Yahweh” that have impacted
many across the globe.
In 2019, she came to the realization that her
calling in worship is beyond the four walls of the
church. As a result, she established her brand,
Worship Culture which includes a clothing line
and a podcast. With her platforms, Sewa
continuously leads souls to worship God not
only in songs, but in lifestyle.
