Pray for me. I’m pastor of an older congregation and they don’t want the tech, and don’t want to learn it either so everything is falling on me. I fully understand when Jesus said go into the world and preach the gospel to all people. This has been a great help, and I pray that God sends young people eager to learn and take over this streaming service. Right now because there is no internet yet in the country land, I have been recording with a video camera and uploading the service when I get home. However, the internet is being installed in the area and we’ll have it soon, so I’m trying to get ahead of it so we’ll be ready to go live soon. 🙏🏾
