ONLINE STRUGGLE - WORSHIP BY FOLLOW-UP

There are SO MANY factors that go in to Online Worship; some good and some not-so-good.  Using One Worship is a GREAT START.  There are hours of prep and editing to get to a point of posting Social Media videos.  Our church has no internet and no cell signal where we are.  So - we are following the suggestion of all the posts at the NGUMC COVID-19 resource [tips/guides] for Online Worship, and pre-recording an Online Order of Worship, and casting this for live Premeire via YouTube and FaceBook link. 

Online Prep takes a lot of time to prepare and we have shifted to asking members & others to record parts of the service.  This, THIS REALLY has been an immeasurable blessing.  With Back-To-School, we had kids participating in the service and reading, sending piano arrangements.  I have received calls and we are looking forward to all hearing the program this Sunday! 

Can One Worship get a Tech Person to support questions from UMC Pastors?  That would be awesone!  Topics like how to best impliment iMovie, Movie Maker, iPad, PC etc for Order of Worship planning?  I see young Pastor's really reaching and doing great things.  Please share the info!  We have used the videos, the music and now hope to also have collaborative support from UMC's  One Worship site, if available. 

God Bless and keep us as we COME TOGETHER to celebrate WOrship in the UNITED METHODIST Church, as never before.  ALL together, worshiping and sharing the love of JEsus with ALL who connect - there are no more doors - let us be the neighbor we are called to be :) AMEN!
