H.I.S. Homeschool Band

H.I.S. Homeschool Band is a ministry of North Point Baptist Church in Weaverville, NC
Open to homeschooled students ages 8+
All activities are focused on bringing Praise, Honor, and Glory to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ
The goal of H.I.S. Homeschool Band is to grow and use the talents God blesses our children with to serve others in His name (H.I.S. = Hands on Instruments Serving)
Examples of ways performing for Him is encouraged is through outreach performances and individual and small group performances.

Rehearsals are at North Point Baptist Church, just 10 minutes north of Asheville, NC
Performances at the end of each semester
Mrs. Christy and Mrs. Jodie believe that having fun and rewarding hard work is key to instilling the desire and devotion needed to become the best musician a student can be
Frequent rewards are offered throughout the semester, as well as a large reward at the end of each semester, to encourage daily practice which helps students recognize the benefits of practice

The band began with seven experienced students in February 2013 when the need for a homeschool band was recognized
Beginner band and Intermediate band were offered the next school year with a total of 29 students participating
Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced bands were offered beginning Fall 2014
As of Spring 2025 we have taught 213 students and of those students many have learned more than one instrument
Many of our graduates frequently return to perform with us
Some of our students have been taught how and have presented colors in a color guard
We have enjoyed watching the Lord grow and transform the group
