What communities are you part of? What does being involved in community mean for your life? Those are two of the core questions in this episode of Sunday Sanctuary. Whether we see ourselves as being community members or not, the different groups we are part of influence how we live our lives.

Community connections lead to both of the interviews for this episode. First up, Petra sat down to talk with the Reverend Dr Hirini Kaa, principal of St John's Theological College in Tāmaki Makaurau. Dr Kaa shared his views on what community means to him as a Māori man and how mana plays a part. Petra's second conversation is with Jenny Duckworth, someone who has lived in several communities all with a very intentional focus on serving their neighbours.

This episode also sees Producer Sam head back to Cornwall Park here in Auckland to ask unsuspecting strangers about their stories of community. He also tries to bring a theme song to the episode, with mixed success..... Haere mai!

Music:

- Come Together by The Beatles 
- Interlude by Julie Byrne (played during contemplative practice)
- Alegria by Elia y Elizabeth (played during community life)
- Everyday People by Sly and the Family Stone
- Oh My God by Kevin Morby (played at the end of Jenny's interview)
- Sun Rays Like Stilts by Tommy Guerrero (played during the benediction)
