On our web pages you will find movie clips of particular meaning taken from recorded church services, clips of special music that have blessed our church family and events that bring life to our church. Also there are audio clips (or podcasts) of sermons and music (both are mp3 files). From time to time there may be a special PowerPoint presentation added as well as other types of media. A broadband or hi-bandwidth connection is recommended for most of these files. Those that are "dial-up friendly" will be marked as such. Enjoy and be blessed. The use of technology to bring to you these words of worship and songs of praise are intended for God's glory alone.

Movie Player

Everyone should have a Windows default media player. It comes and installs with Windows. It will play both the movie clips and the audio clips. If you don't want to mess around with anything, we'll just leave it there.

The default Media Player can be quite large and a resource hog. A smaller, full-featured freeware media player that I use as my default player is based on the old-style Windows Media Player. It's called MPlayerC (Media Player Classic). You can download and try it if you like. It will play QuickTime and Real files as well.

Audio Player

Audio Player Any audio file presented on this web site will more than likely be MP3 files. The default media player will play MP3 files. So will MusicMatch, WINAmp, RealMedia and a host of others if you have then installed.

There are programs specifically designed for Podcasts. A podcasts is a series of mp3 audio files to which you subscribe. I'm not sure we will go that far, but we may.

For now, your media player will do the job.

PowerPoint or PowerPoint Player

PowerPoint Presentation If you have Microsoft Office installed there is a good chance you have PowerPoint on your PC. If you don't have PowerPoint, you can download the PowerPoint Player free from Microsoft and install it.

Others

Audio Clips (podcasts)
	I'm starting with audio only clips of David's sermons. It is excellent teaching and bears repeating. These files can be loaded to an MP3 player, an iPod or burned to a CD to play on your car stereo. Whenever you NEED to hear the teaching of the Word.
Video Clips
	There are a few locations on this web site where there are video clips. The more famous (or infamous, you might say) will be included on the video page. Then I'll add clips of special music, the choir and David's sermons. I'll have to rotate them out to allow for space on the web host.
360° panoramic tours of key places in our church.
	If you have not seen these rotating visions of the Sanctuary, the Chapel and the Fellowship Hall, you are really missing something. Make sure you give the images plenty of time to download to your PC. You also must Have Java installed. It's free and accessible from Sun.
eBooks
	I would like some feedback on this one. Would people download and read eBooks? They are free. You can read them on your PDAs or smartphones, too. It's just the thing for waiting at the airport or such. I have many versions of the bible, bible study books and religious text that are free and downloadable. Here's a start.
Photographs (coming soon!)
	This will be a listing or map of existing photographs on the web site with links as well as groups of photographs of our church and church family never before seen!

This is just a start. much more to come!
