In February of this year, the church I attend (Bay Presbyterian Church) launched an online church ministry. Our church streams the 11:00 AM Sunday service live, with an interactive online experience, including a chat room, private live prayer, editable sermon notes and more.
This past Sunday, Kevin Rush (the team leader of our online ministry) shared the following vignette in our church bulletin…
Praise God that people who may not have been willing or able to set foot here on campus can hear the truth of God’s love for them.
Recently, a staff member shared how a family with a special needs child had to change their care plan for a few weeks. Due to the change, they had to stay at home on Sunday morning for the time being. Through baypres.tv, the child and the parents have felt connected to the church in their absence. Every Sunday, their child reminds them about what he calls “iPad church.” I think he should trademark that.
Our ministry team is available to help any churches with both a disability ministry and an online campus to use their online campus as a tool for disability ministry. Interested? Contact us.
