On Sunday, January 19, from 12:45 - 2:00, the Tech Team will be installing exciting upgrades on our Sound system and Zoom infrastructure.

We will install a new Zoom camera in the back of the Sanctuary that can zoom in and pivot so that the podium, piano, and congregation attendees can be viewed. We are directly connecting to the projector so that video in the Sanctuary and on Zoom is in sync. Plus, we are upgrading the sound system so that our original mics can be heard on Zoom, which means Zoom attendees will be able to hear music and sanctuary attendees who use the wireless mic.
