Struggling to get to church? This Good Friday Christian Chat UK (www.christianchat.co.uk) held the first live online communion service with people all over the world taking part. Using the latest in chat room technology the organisers based in Wilmslow, Cheshire used webcams so people could participate in the service throughout the world.
The service was held on Good Friday and over 37 people joined from countries all over the world including the UK, USA, Sweden, South Africa and more. The service included video clips sent to users, Bible verses posted to the room, with the act of communion being carried out using live webcam and voice.
One of the users in chat said, “I just want say thanks because this is amazing in here tonight, I’ve been quite far away from God the last week but this has totally brought me back. It sounds weird but he is in this chat room with us”
Chris Clarke Director of Christian Chat said “Many people find it difficult to access church and at times find it hard to relate to traditional services. Christian Chat reaches out using modern technology to bring church to peoples homes.”
“Each week we hold various services including Bible study and prayer meetings but this it the first time I have ever heard of a Communion service live online. Christian Chat has become a lifeline to many users who are not able to attend traditional church.” Chris continued.
Christian Chat has been established for over 10 years and is the busiest UK moderated Christian Chat room. Each month thousands of people use the chat room which allows users to use voice and video as well as text chat.
