Texas Minister's Death Prompts New Safety Concerns
They say bad news travels fast, and certainly the reports of the electrocution of Pastor Kyle Lake of University Baptist Church in Waco, Texas, have spread rapidly through the worship media community. Along the way, they have prompted both some irrational overreactions and a measured re-assessment of how safety is—or isn't—being promoted in America's houses of worship.

Rev. Lake had just stepped into his church's baptismal font, into water roughly waist-deep, when he reached out to adjust a microphone that was producing an unwelcome hum. The resulting electric shock stopped the pastor's heart, which paramedics and doctors at a nearby hospital were not able to restart. more>>

Sennheiser Provides Microphones for Dresden's Frauenkirche Reconstruction Project
For more than six decades, Sennheiser has been making a difference in the lives of the countless audio professionals and enthusiasts who rely on its products every day. But for Sennheiser, making a difference goes far beyond the recording studio or performance stage—as its role in the world's best-known humanitarian projects clearly attests. In Dresden, Germany, for example, the company is helping to enrich lives through its donation of microphone technology for the city's beloved Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady), a 300-year-old church that recently re-opened after 12 years of painstaking reconstruction.

For decades, ruins were all that remained of the Frauenkirche. In 1993, reconstruction began to bring the magnificent 18th-century baroque church back to life. Today, the building has all the modern technical facilities of the 21st century, including electricity, air conditioning, and state-of-the-art audio technology donated by Sennheiser. The Frauenkirche is also equipped with Sennheiser's GuidePort visitor guidance system, which tells visitors all they need to know about the church and its moving history. more>>


Suburban Chicago Church Welcomes QSC Audio to its Family
The faithful, small but growing congregation of the Family Life Church in Chicago recently had its faith rewarded. After many long Sunday meetings in a makeshift sanctuary in the Elgin O'Hare Commerce Building, the church received a truly remarkable donation — a new home.

The gift of a classic church building, not far from the existing facility, was a welcome one indeed, and the Family Life staff immediately set about making it their own, beginning with a new sound system based around ModularDesign (MD) series loudspeakers from Costa Mesa, Calif.-based QSC Audio Products. more>>

OAP Audio Products Unveils the Innovative NF-331HP "Stair Riser"
OAP Audio Products of Buford, Ga., has announced the newest addition to its Near Field series product lineup— the innovative NF-331HP "Stair Riser" slim-line loudspeaker system. The NF-331HP was designed to mount into stair risers and stage fronts in houses of worship, auditoriums, classrooms, or any venue where "hideable" near-field coverage is necessary and a small, efficient full-range loudspeaker is required.

The speaker system measures 14 11/32"x6 3/8"x3 1/2" (WxDxH), and has been specifically designed to fit between 16in. OC studs. The NF-331HP has the same performance characteristics as the OAP NF-241HP2 Stair Riser, but in terms of size, the NF-331HP is only 3.5in. tall—1.25in. less than the NF-241HP2. This makes it the ideal solution for tight or height-restricted situations. more>>
