    Church Livestream Setup

    Worship from home. Stay connected.

    Find your church online

    1. Search "[your church name] livestream" on Google.
    2. Most churches stream on YouTube, Facebook, or their own site.
    3. Some use Zoom for small services.
    4. Subscribe / "follow" to get notifications when service starts.
    5. Save the link — bookmark on your home screen.

    Cast to TV (much better than phone)

    • Smart TV — open YouTube/Facebook app on TV directly. Search church name.
    • Roku / FireTV / AppleTV — same. Open app, search.
    • Phone → TV — open service on phone, tap "cast" icon, pick your TV.
    • Chromecast (~$30) — plug into HDMI, casts from phone.
    • Big screen + couch + coffee = like being at church.

    National + denominational online services

    • Daily Hope (Rick Warren) — pastor radio + livestream.
    • The Catholic Channel — daily Mass on Sirius XM + EWTN.
    • Mass online — Catholic.org, Loyola Press, EWTN.
    • Hour of Power (Robert Schuller legacy).
    • Joni and Friends — disability ministry.
    • Andrew Wommack Ministries.
    • Most major denominations have a national livestream.

    Online giving

    • Most churches have "Give" button on website.
    • Apps like Tithe.ly, Pushpay, Givelify.
    • Set up recurring monthly giving — "set and forget".
    • End-of-year tax statement automated.
    • For older non-tech members: many churches still mail check via snail mail. Both work.

    Stay connected beyond Sunday

    Most churches now have email newsletters, Facebook groups, prayer chains via text. Ask the church office how to join. The community matters as much as the service. Keep the relationships even when you can't make it in person.
