Welcome

There are fewer and fewer ordained clergy and the numbers forecast to complete seminary training in the future is decreasing.  More churches (of all sizes) are relying on retired, part time, and/or lay ministers to lead their services.  Preparing a service takes time, energy, and resources that these individuals may be limited on.  Service Composer provides these resources at a nominal cost so that meaningful home gatherings, small groups, and traditional church services may continue to be held.

Churches without a pastor, leaders who do not have the time or resources to plan all of the necessary aspects of a worship service or Bible Study, individuals who prefer to lead small gatherings but desire the elements of the complete service.  Pastor's-in-training, in the commissioning process or who have received their credentials by non-traditional means (outside of a seminary program) will benefit from the resources now available to them.

In a word, "everyone".  When meaningful gatherings occur, God is honored and the people are uplifted.

Regardless of whether there are two gathered or 2000, all of the work that goes into a service is the same.  The sermon/message must be written and delivered, hymns selected and sung, and all of the other components must be executed.  When the church is small, rural, on a budget, or with a vacant pulpit, this can create challenges for the one or two people who must get it all done.  Subscribed resources allow relevant and meaningful services to be planned and shared with less work.

About 10 days before the month begins, you will be provided with the resources based on the package you requested and purchased.  This will vary based on the number of Sundays in the month.  For example, some months may have a package of 5 services and others 4.  The price remains the same for the month regardless.  The Premier Package allows for some customization of materials.  This will occur 10-14 days prior to the month.

The terms are basic and fair.  Payment is due on or before the 14th of the month.  Once the materials are sent, there is no refund or exchange.  Otherwise, cancel any time.

You are purchasing the right to use these materials in a legal manner for your ministry.  Although it is not required that you credit Service Composer, you may not monetize, redistribute, copywrite, or claim to be the original author.  Be aware that others on the same subscription plan may be using the same or similar materials.  It is your responsibility to confirm that you are not violating any copywrite or IP laws in your use of quotes, hymns, etc.  Please ask if you have questions.

Yes!  You may make any changes to the subscription plan before the 14th day of the month.  Additional services may be added at any time.  This is often the case when someone must substitute for the regular leader so "a complete service" package may be needed that single week.  Be sure to take advantage of any discounts you may receive as a subscriber.
