Guitarist Rob Caggiano commented on the achievement via Facebook:

"Worship Music sold 28,000 copies last week and landed at #12 on Billboard's Top 200! I wanted to sincerely thank everyone for all the support, undying patience, and for simply sticking with us! Now, let's all keep it going please. Tell everyone you know about Worship Music!"
