This Sunday there were technical difficulties and the service was not live-streamed and it was not possible to record the service. The service was recorded with a cell phone. Ben Lichti, BCMC P.A. operator said: “The video I made with my phone finally finished uploading and processing. The first few minutes are fuzzy and the picture is reversed because it was using my front-facing camera, but then I realized it and reversed it. So the rest is pretty good, and the sound quality is decent.”
