Posted in: What software does your church use for projecting songs, liturgy and/or notes?
We have a terrible solution for cross-platform projection! We have this lovely Mac, which someone encouraged the the church to buy without knowing that our software, Easy Worship only runs on PC. So we have a screaming fast Mac that boots up with Windows XP. The reason that we have switched to the Mac exclusively is the lack of a program that is consistent and simple as Easy Worship. Has anyone heard the rumor that Easy Worship is working on a Mac edition?

Well this took me long enough to reply, but the timing couldn't be more perfect. It was only yesterday that I was telling my worship leader that I needed to know more about ProPresenter (we've been using it for maybe five or six months). I'll look forward to watching your trainings.

It's important to have computers that can make it through a whole service. It sounds like you've found a decent solution for Brookside, Dean.

I'm not sure if this is still "kosher," but could you host movie nights at private homes of members of the congregation? You could spread everyone out in the houses and watch them at the same time.

Sherick, It is always a challenge to get the team up to speed. When we switched software last spring, we had several Sundays' worth of inconsistent screens. But everyone picked up on the software pretty quickly. You might want to decide ahead of time what you wants the fonts, backgrounds, and transitions look like.
Hope all goes well and no more crashes!
Posted in: Children at the Lord's Supper
As far as I know, and I'm no expert, children are welcome after they've made profession of faith. Communion is a sign between Christ and his Church. And while children are part of the covenant, they're not full members of the church until they'll professed Christ.
