AVLX Brings ROE Visual's Topaz to Life at Community Bible Church

"Our kids don't know life without technology. If the goal is to communicate a message, there's no better way than through an experience that engages the senses, and LED plays a huge part in that."

Community Bible Church has long been recognized as a forward-thinking church, both in ministry and in its approach to technology. As the congregation has grown, so has the church's vision for using creative media to reach people far beyond the walls of its main San Antonio campus. With a rapidly expanding multi-campus model and an emphasis on producing engaging content, CBC set out to find an LED solution that would create a consistent, immersive worship experience across every location. For this, the church turned to AVLX and ROE Visual.

For AVLX, a company built on over 60 years of combined industry expertise spanning touring, military, and installed production environments, the goal was clear: deliver a system that looked as stunning on camera as it did in person, could be reconfigured for multiple event types, and was simple for the church's tech team to operate and maintain. That search led directly to ROE Visual's Topaz 2.6 series, in the form of 160 flat panels, 400 curved panels, and 40 cube panels -- a combination that offers virtually unlimited creative potential.

"Lots of companies can deliver a one-dimensional large flat LED wall," AVLX explains. "ROE stands above the rest with their ability to adapt to any creative ask a designer might have. Topaz really is the superior choice when thinking creatively about LED wall configurations -- it just makes it easy."

For Spencer Ansell, lighting director at Community Bible Church, that flexibility has been especially valuable. According to AVLX, Spencer shares how "freeing ROE is." He can push boundaries with LED layouts for a youth event one week and then create a powerful, polished stage set for a Sunday service the next. In a world where the church is competing with culture for attention, having the ROE platform lets the message shine bright and stand out while offering outstanding reliability. On a Sunday morning, when everything is moving at 100 miles per hour, that's priceless.

With AVLX's integration, the companies say, CBC has seen its vision realized: a unified worship experience that bridges campuses, supported by visuals that enhance rather than distract. For online viewers, the clarity and vibrancy of the LED display translate to camera. For those in the room, the wall provides a dynamic backdrop that engages its audience and supports the message.

AVLX sees this project as part of a broader trend in the house of worship market -- one where technology plays an increasingly central role in communication and community building. "We live in a digital world," AVLX notes. "Our kids don't know life without technology. The expectation for on-demand, high-quality content is the new normal. Gone are the days of pallet walls and mesh backdrops. If the goal is to communicate a message, there's no better way than through an experience that engages the senses, and LED plays a huge part in that."

"Working with ROE is a top-notch experience," AVLX says. "They always ensure you get the correct product for the need, while exceeding every expectation you have as a business owner investing heavily in technology. To put it simply, ROE is world-class."

"Seeing AVLX bring Topaz's configurations together like this is exactly what we envisioned when we designed it," says Frank Montero, managing director at ROE Visual. "Our goal was to give people the freedom to create something cohesive and beautiful, and it's truly special to see that vision shared and brought to life in such a meaningful space."
