“Emmanuelworship came to John Paul College last year and provided a musical and leadership experience that will long be remembered by all who were lucky to be there. A concert/worship experience where we heard the band in full swing in the evening, provided a punchy, energetic introduction to the band. Testimony from members of the band explained to the audience the meaning behind the songs and added a depth of understanding to the lyrics and the music. The following day the members of the band provided a workshop to willing musicians. Guitarists, keyboard players and brass instrumentalists combined to practice a number of songs while those with a voice spent time practising with the band's vocalists. A third group spent time discussing leadership and the possibilities that present themselves to the youth of today to shine in this area. The day culminated with a musical performance involving all participants.
I would happily recommend emmanuelworship to any school seeking an energetic, well organised and professional Catholic Music group. A truly uplifting experience.

“We asked emmanuelworship to run a music workshop with interested students from our school. Many of the students who attended the day had a passion for music but had not previously helped out with our College liturgies. The size of our chapel band doubled after the workshop and the students were excited to be playing contemporary Christian music with catch riffs. The day itself was conducted with much patience (working with a large group) and was quite successful with the students learning three new songs. We have been looking for music which is accessible to young people for some time now and I am most grateful to emmanuelworship, not just for providing that music but helping us to play it well.
