Q:
How long do these InterACTIVE CHURCH Services last?
A:
The Wednesday Testimony Meeting teleconferences last about one
hour.
Q:
Do I need a computer to participate in the InterACTIVE CHURCH
Service?
A:
No, you can participate simply by calling in on your phone. Having
the Order of Service page
up on your internet browser during the service and discussion
will enhance the experience, but it is not required. So, you may
share the conference call phone number and access code with friends
and family who do not have access to the internet.
Q:
Do I need special telephone equipment or conferencing features
on my phone to participate?
A:
No, you may use any phone. No conferencing features or any other
special features are required. The following list of items ARE
helpful, however:
- If your
phone has a "mute" button it is helpful to keep your
phone on "mute" until you wish to speak or sing hymns
as this helps to reduce background noise.
- Headsets
- if you are calling in using a cell phone, cordless phone,
or using "SkypeOut™" from your computer, a headset
will possibly make your experience more enjoyable.
- Speaker
Phones - if you can put your phone on "speaker" mode,
it will keep you from having to hold the receiver to your ear,
and, if there are more than one of you in the same location,
you will all be able to hear.

Q:
Why is there no Sunday InterACTIVE CHURCH service any longer?
A: Since the Bible Lesson read at Sunday Christian
Science church services is copyrighted by the Christian Science
Publishing Society, and these teleconferences are considered a
form of broadcasting, we had to stop our Sunday service in order
to respect the copyright held by CSPS. We hope some day that we
will be allowed to conduct these healing services again. |
