Hybrid gatherings

As Saint Philip’s prepares to reintroduce some ministries such as Bible Study, it has found a new way to allow for groups to meet both in-person and online.

The Owl is a 360-degree camera and microphone that sits at the center of a table and allows people who cannot attend in-person to join in over Zoom, while still feeling connected to the people in the room.

One Owl has been purchased so far as a test for some of the ministries around campus. If it is received well by the community, more may be acquired as a way to increase Saint Philip’s ongoing hybrid ministry and worship efforts.
