🎵 Services, songs and sermon slides

A service slideshow is everything shown during Bible class or worship, in order: songs, blank screens between parts, scripture, and the speaker’s slides.

Songs

Open a song item and type the song’s number or part of its title. Pick the verses you’ll sing; the title slide can be included or left out. The song list comes from the church computer: the Sola Studio app sends the names of the songs in your songs folder, so you can only choose songs you actually have.

Scripture reading

Type or paste the passage and the reference. Long passages split over several slides by themselves.

The preacher’s or teacher’s PowerPoint

Open the Sermon slides (or Teacher’s slides) item and upload the .pptx file. Their transitions, animations and videos are kept exactly as they made them. No slides this week? Press Not needed / Skip this week.

Blank screens and fades

Blank items show a black screen between parts of the service. Tick Fade in on any item to fade it in gently.

Order

Drag items by their ⠿ handle or use ▲ ▼. Use ＋ Add a slide for anything else: a picture, a text slide, the Plan of Salvation, prayer list, and so on.
