Midway through Sunday's sermon, we lost power. I was manning the sound booth. We had zero audio reinforcement, no PowerPoint slides for sermon notes or for the words to the songs, and the videographer could not record the rest of the day's service for (local cable) television.
.
Smoothly, the pastor said, "Well, I'll just have to project." The side doors were propped wide open and provided sufficient light to see each other. We had communion without a glitch, and for the closing song, they switched up to a familiar hymn, that most people know by heart..
How nice that in a day when barely anything can be done without computers or at least electricity, that we were able to worship "unplugged.".
Just for fun, after church I recommended that if this ever happens again, we use our wireless microphones.
