Let's face it. There are a large number of people who are shut-ins, have illnesses, and other issues that prevent them from attending normal church services. While researching this topic for a recent article I found that there are few resources for people needing to attend services "from home."
I was curious if there are any people out there who attend online services of some fashion themselves or if they know of anyone who does.
What resources do you/they use?
Is there an accurate list of online services and churches offering online services?
What about Bible study groups and discussion?

Hello girl and welcome to myLot. You can find almost any church service on line. Just type in the denomination you prefer and you will find a list of churches. At one time I live in an area that had a radio station that was owned by my church and I could listen to services and bible studies all day. I do have an online church that I like to listen to. It is at Amazingfacts.org. There I can get resource material, sabbath school lessons and sermons and so much more.

I have been attending services online and on tv for years. I have transportation problems. I cannot afford a taxi to get to church every week. And, I am sure God does not want me to waste what little money I have just to conform to a tradition. So, online services are the perfect solution for me.
I can see the Mass online 5 days a week at DioceseofScranton.org. On Sunday, I can see the Mass from St. Luke's Church in Stroudsburg at 9am on Channel 13. I can participate as much as I could if I were physically present in the church, except that I cannot receive the Eucharist.
