Church Online Platform

Website: ChurchOnline.org
Launched: 2012
Cost: Free

Helps churches launch an online ministry featuring video presentation (using the video streaming provider of your choice); worship and teaching; live chats translated from multiple languages; one-on-one live prayer; and more.

Senior Pastor Greg Surratt of Seacoast Church in Mount Pleasant, S.C., says: “From seekers, homebound believers and regular attenders on the road to those looking for the first experience with our church, Church Online has allowed us to connect with them where they are instead of requiring them to come to us.”
