It was quite an experience to have online-only church services. The team of servants was awesome, working hours and hours over the past week to prepare for the challenge!
After an introduction, we had live worship, a time of offering, followed by a teaching from Psalm 34. It was a really relevant message about how God uses any kind of trouble in our lives in order to transform us. Of course, our world is in a heap of trouble with regards to this virus. It’s our hope and prayer that people will turn to Christ for true, genuine relief–that they experience a transformation of fear into faith, of panic into power, and hopelessness to hope. After the message we closed with a song of worship.
We sure learned a lot from the overall experience, especially the technical aspects: the importance of good lighting, the need to have camera angles preset, how Youtube handles streaming, and more. No doubt, we’ll improve the whole online experience in weeks to come.
Praise the Lord for He enabling us to make the services happen. We sure wanted Him to be glorified through it all!
