Church of England to Live Stream Services

The Church of England is going to start live streaming their services for those who find it too scary to sit in pews. They are wanting to broadcast their Sunday services live on the Internet to accommodate those who are scared. The Church House headquarters in London are very supportive of this new technology and are encouraging parishes to take advantage of it. The new streaming service is owned by Twitter and called Periscope. This service has many benefits for those who are too ill to attend the service or for those who want to find out more about the church before attending their first service. The Church of England hopes this will start to attract a younger audience. The app also allows worshipers to follow along on their phone or tablet instead of having to look their a booklet.
