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.
