Projecting Music & Scripture

We use Worship Tools Presenter to project and currently each projectionist uses their own laptop. If you would like to project and do not have a Windows, Mac, or Linux computer, one can be made available for use on Sunday morning, but you will not be able to practice during the week.

Settings for Presenter are found by clicking the 'gear' icon in the upper right of the program and then choosing Settings.

All songs must be in CCLI's catalog. You can search their catalog at CCLI Song Search. Please enter the CCLI number for each song you add to OpenSong. If a song is not Public Domain or in CCLI we cannot use it for worship.

Here are some guidelines from the Proclaim Website.

• Limited lines per slide: As a rule of thumb, try to limit slides to 2-4 lines, 5 at most.
• Sans Serif font: Stick to san-serif fonts. Some common examples of san-serif fonts are Arial, Calibri, and Verdana. An example of a non-serif font is Times Roman, Georgia, and Bookman.
• White text over black: The projector’s brightest light is white, so white will always be the most visible color.
• Lose the labels: We prefer a good arrangement of slides instead of writing out the labels like Verse, Chorus, Bridge and Instructions like Repeat 2x and so on. We prefer the worship leader to dictate the flow of the song as opposed to the slides themselves.
• No punctuation: We prefer a clean looking slide and usually don’t use any punctuation. No commas, exclamation points, or periods. Since the melody usually dictates the flow of the words, there is not much need for punctuation. Use your judgment as this is personal preference more than a rule but we prefer the cleaner look.

Name the Cue List using a YYYY MM DD Leader format where Leader is the name of the person leading worship that day.
