  • Christmas Gathered 2020
    GATHERED CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS AS A CHURCH FAMILY why not mix things up this Christmas? Here are some new ideas for how you might be family together as you celebrate Christmas as gathered church. However, it also pushes us to think about and be church family as we look outward to the world around us and ask God how can we bless, love and share what Christmas is all about with those he has placed in our lives. This is not a Christmas "performance", it is designed for the whole church family to participate- not just the children! We hope this helps you celebrate in a new way but also that it challenges, inspires and equips you to move beyond our boundaries and comfort zones this Christmas. Have a happy Christmas and blessed New Year! And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

    Sony Music Media Contacts: Angela Barkan / Larissa Slezak [email protected] [email protected] 212-833-8575 / 6075 THE PIANO GUYS REACH 1 BILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBE Photo Credit: Tim Norris (August 8, 2016 - New York, NY) – The Piano Guys celebrate a monumental landmark, reaching 1 Billion views on YouTube for their innovative music videos. On Saturday night at their concert at The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, YouTube honored them with a plaque commemorating this exciting achievement. According to YouTube – just over 100 artist channels, including some of the biggest icons in the world, have reached the 1 billion view mark. Of their latest landmark, Steven Sharp Nelson says: “A billion is a big number. Especially for a quartet of dads who just started making music videos for fun. Honestly, we are overwhelmed with gratitude. We feel like there have been so many miracles to make this possible that we are simply along for the ride. Behind every view is someone that has spent their time and sometimes their hard-earned money in support of us. We’ve built this on their shoulders. We also feel like there have been lots of answered prayers along the way too. No matter how big the number gets, we’ve promised ourselves that we’ll never lose sight of this. We were in the middle of tour when the big billionth view boomed so we celebrated the best way we know how – by thanking our audience personally!” In addition to their loyal YouTube fan base, the four dads from Utah recently celebrated an official RIAA Gold Album Certification for their first album - The Piano Guys.
