Live streamed Sunday Service
As we’ve mentioned over the past couple of weeks, we are going to trial live streaming our Sunday service. The purpose of this is to make the service available for those who are unable to attend or for those who don’t quite feel comfortable in large crowds as of yet. It will most likely take us a few goes to get the technology right, so bear with us!
Please, if you do tune in let us know how the picture and sound quality was for you. Look out for an email with the link.
