Cathedral of Hope has recorded its services for the past 20 years and is upgrading its equipment for the first time.
“For the past two years during Lent, we’ve asked for money for the media upgrade,” said Phoebe Sexton, the church’s director of communication.
They’ve collected enough to pay off the first phase of the upgrade that included a new control room and monitors.
“No more masking tape holding things together,” Sexton said.
She said that an anonymous donor is helping CoH secure the rest of the equipment at half price. That includes new high-definition cameras and an archiving system. The church is running out of room to hold physical tapes and many of those tapes are at the end of their shelf life.
“We have one shot to digitize them,” Sexton said.
She said that Cathedral of Hope has one of the largest archives of liberal Christian worship and other events held at the church collected over the past two decades. Services from the church can be seen online and on cable access around the country. The Internet broadcast is watched by thousands of people in about 80 countries.

How shocking! Cathedral of Hope in need of money. Did they ever pay off the church or the chapel (which they announced they raised all the money for on a single Sunday but still had to finance over 1 Million for)?
When will people learn? No diff between the 700 Club and COH. Do you know what they do with the money they raise? If not, maybe someone should ask them.
Problem is, they have no clue how much they really raised or even where it went. I know this first hand cuz I asked when I went three and never was able to get valid answer. I am wondering how that revolving door has lasted all these years!
You have a valid point WOW. It makes one wonder why some local gay press has never ever tried to investigate this even though people are always asking. I mean why would the local gay press not want the truth exposed?
