What a wonderful Christmas gift the North Point iBand gave us last Sunday.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, North Point Community Church!
What an unbelievable, imaginative and innovative use of technology. Only the North Point band, er, iBand, could come up with the idea, let alone the great arrangements. The performance was ah-mazing.
I tweeted during 9:00 a.m. service that people should definitely catch the performance on North Point Online at 11:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Then, later, posted on Facebook to do the same, and again on Tuesday when the official video was published on YouTube and Vimeo.
You all rock! You are a blessing, and I’m blessed to have such a great church home where every aspect of worship glorifies God, and enhances our personal walks with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Merry Christmas to all!

Hey John! You’re welcome! We are very blessed to have such talented and creative people in our church. By the way, thank you for spreading the word through Twitter and facebook! By doing that, you were a part of leading people into a growing relationship with Jesus. Pretty cool how that happens even through things like Twitter, facebook, and iBands!

The video was amazing! You guys did an outstanding job!
Would it be possible to post a list of the different apps you used … particularly the bells app and the Piano/organ?

Wow! So proud of you guys at North Point; you hit the Canadian AM news with your Iband!!! Great promo for North Point - and now it’s just gone crazy! Within an hour I’ve had a whole lot of people who discovered your music and your church! Thanks for sharing this with us!

Hey Gary and Marilyn! Thank you so much for the kind words. We’ve been surprised at how many people have seen this. We’re very fortunate to have some smart, creative people around here.
Gary, check out this blog post from one of our staff members. He shares which apps were used.

Very nicely done. Attention grabbed! Not only an eye-opening and entertaining performance, but this type of thing really invites people in to what is next. Not to mention, I’m sure the video will become a social media phenom. Great job guys. Love it!

Greetings from Perth, Wetern Australia!
Your production has inspired us here at Carey Baptist College & Carey Community Baptist Church http://www.carey.wa.edu.au & http://www.carey.asn.au respectively.
Personally I hope to form an iBand within the church I attend at Mount Pleasant Baptist Church - http://www.mounties.org.au.
Considering us at Carey are an Apple Mac school we as an IT team found this to be awesome.
I believe the video created is being watched from all over the world!
Blessings on your church and iBand.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! May God continue to bless you - and us - with your spirit and His message to us!
God Bless!

Any chance there will be a repeat at the Northpoint Worship service Wednesday? How about the Christmas Eve service at Buckhead?
December 21st, 2010 at 9:51 am
John, thanks for stopping by the blog and leaving a comment. We are very fortunate to have amazing staff and volunteers who think of and carry out things like this. Thank you for your kind words.
Tracy, we can’t confirm or deny if there will be a repeat performance. We can confirm that North Point’s Night of Worship and Buckhead’s Christmas Eve services will be amazing and very special. We hope you can make it to one or both.
December 21st, 2010 at 4:41 pm
Tracy, looks like it’s been confirmed! The iBand will make an appearance at the Buckhead Church Christmas Eve services this Friday at 4p and 6p. Hope you can make it!

You’re welcome, Tracy! Yes, the iBand will not be at North Point tonight.
