Many churches don’t know where to start when thinking about their lighting; what fixtures to get? Where to put them? Do you need color or just white light? Why is lighting so expensive? A myriad of questions often paralyze a church before a lighting upgrade project can even really begin.
The Gathering Place, in Vancouver, Washington, knows what goes into maximizing their lighting system. Last year, they finished remodeling a small building and moved in. Renovation and remodel projects nearly always run over budget and that affects other areas and this was no different. Wishing to be the best stewards possible, they chose to utilize the fixtures from their mobile system and make a small investment in some LED color-changing back lighting and some uplighting for the back wall of the stage.
These were strategic purchases to help them build a system that could be added to in the future. They had to balance current and near-future needs with budget realities and they did a great job as the results are eye-catching without being distracting. Given that they were not recording video when they moved in, they decided to only light the center from the front.
GLP’s Light show for this years LDI was a huge attraction at the show, and was rewarded with the Best Product Display LDI Award.

In today’s church we have the issue that our members are made up from all areas of the community and in smaller churches we may not have enough skilled people to run the technology we would like to use. Modern DMX-based lighting is one such area. With the complexities of modern DMX fixtures such as moving head lights the average person would be put off from trying to operate the lighting system. Oakwood Church, in Taunton, Somerset, UK is using SwiftTec technology to overcome this barrier.
SwiftTec Ltd is a small software development company (www.swifttec.com) with many years of experience in software design and development which has developed some unique software for controlling DMX fixtures. It has been designed so that once programmed it can be easily operated by anyone who knows how to operate a computer.
