Tent Ministry

If your Church is worshipping outside, then it may be appropriate to put up a tent. After all, there is a precedent for this in the Old Testament – i.e. the Tabernacle. This will keep everyone dry should a summer thunderstorm come through. Otherwise, everyone will be scrambling to find shelter. That can be a significant disruption to worship.
How do you support meeting in the “Tabernacle” with technology? Perhaps you have an outdoor Public Address (PA) system that you can use. Wireless microphones are used in most services, and they will work great outside. You can try a projector screen, but the ambient light may be too strong to see words projected. So you may need to use hymnals or printed song lyrics. Or you could have the lyrics online, where everyone could read them off their smart phone.
Outdoor meetings can be a great way to help people get back to worship. They will provide plenty of fresh air, and will be fun for the children. Technology will work outside. You just need to do some planning.
