Livestream Ministry Needs Your Help!

On Sunday mornings and special service days, St. John's Media Ministry offers those who can't be at church the gift of the livestreamed service. People confined to home, traveling, or parishioners who have moved away are so appreciative of this way to stay in touch.


Our ministry is asking for some help! A person is needed at services to run the livestream, which has been streamlined to a simple process and a page of bullet points. It can even be done from an iPad in the pew!


Ideally, the ministry has a group of people to stream in rotation. It's a great way to be of service, especially for digitally native young people—or any age person willing to try something new—and with a good roster, your Sunday could be 1 in 6 weeks.


On Sunday, stop by the Acolyte room on your way to the Nave; Ann or Kevin can show you the set-up. For more information and to get involved, email Ann Stewart.
