| dc.description.abstract | This study aimed to investigate the integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in church worship within the Diocese of Central Buganda. Specifically, the research examined the impact of digital projections and social media platforms on church music, gospel preaching, and Bible study. Additionally, the study focused on the development of an online gospel music database to enhance the effectiveness of church music, preaching, and Bible study, as well as the design and validation of a worship application to streamline church worship processes. Employing a cross-sectional survey research design with an exploratory approach, the study utilized both primary and secondary data sources. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 25, The findings revealed that the integration of projectors into church worship significantly enhanced the accessibility and security of information while fostering connectivity across multiple platforms. Notably, the development of the "CoU Praise App" emerged as an innovative outcome of this research. This Android-compatible application seamlessly integrated with various social media platforms, aiming to augment church worship experiences within the Anglican Church and beyond. In conclusion, this study underscored the importance of adopting and integrating ICT in church worship to elevate its quality and effectiveness. By leveraging technological advancements, churches could enrich the experience of sharing music, engaging in Bible study, and delivering gospel messages, thereby fostering a more dynamic and impactful worship environment. | |
