Every Sunday some of the people who belong to your church are not in the room: in bed with a fever, too frail for the stairs, in a hospital ward, abroad, at work, on a train. With the link, they can follow the service live, as it happens, in their own language, wherever they are.
Every Sunday, some of the people who belong to your church are not in the room.
A mother is at home with a feverish child. An older member can no longer manage the stairs or the cold walk from the car. A man from your home group is in a hospital bed after an operation. A young couple's parents live in another country and would love to share in their church life. A nurse is on a night shift. A family is driving back from a holiday. They are part of the church, and on this Sunday the church goes on without them.
It does not have to. This is the part of MulingStream people least expect, so we say it plainly: a listener does not have to be in the building.
Every MulingStream room has its own link. Whoever has that link can open it on their phone and follow the service while it is happening, in their own language, from wherever they are. They choose their language, and the words arrive as they are spoken: as text to read, as a voice to hear, or as the speaker's own words if they share the language of the sermon.
They do not need an app or an account, and they do not need to be on the church Wi-Fi. They need the link, a phone with a browser, and an internet connection. The room's QR code and its passcode open the same door, so a member can also scan the code from a photo of the bulletin or type the passcode they were given on the phone.
The sick and the recovering. Someone in bed with flu can follow the sermon on the phone on their bedside table, at the same moment the church hears it.
Older members. The ones who used to sit in the same seat for thirty years and now rarely leave the house. Many of them would rather be with their church as it happens than watch something later.
People in hospital. A short message from the pastor with the link on Sunday morning reaches a member in a ward, with an earbud in, without disturbing anyone.
Relatives abroad. Parents in another country can follow their children's church in the language they think in. At a baptism or a dedication, a grandmother far away can hear every word, translated as it is said.
People on the move. The nurse coming off a night shift, the driver, the family on the way home: with the link they are part of the service wherever the road is.
Open your room and copy the invitation link. Send it the way you already reach people: the church WhatsApp group, a text message to the person who could not come, the newsletter, an email from the pastoral team. The link leads to the same room every week, so a member who saves it on their phone can open it next Sunday too.
For someone who is not comfortable with links, a visit before Sunday helps: open it with them once on their own phone, choose their language, and show them where to tap. After that, it is the same every week.
Since late October, a listener who opens the link before the service sees whether the speaker has started. So a member at home can open it early, see that the service has not begun yet, and wait without wondering whether something is wrong. When the speaker starts, the words begin to arrive; when the service ends, they see that it has finished.
While it runs, they can read along, put in earbuds and listen, or switch to the speaker's own words. They can change language at any time, which helps in a family where the grandparents follow in one language and the grandchildren in another.
You do not have to be in the building. With the link, you can follow from home, from a hospital bed, or on the move.
This is the service as it happens. When the church prays, the person at home is praying at the same moment. When the pastor tells a story and the room laughs, they hear the same story. That sense of being there, with everyone else, is what a member who is stuck at home misses most, and it is the thing a recording cannot give.
MulingStream carries the words, not the picture. If your church already streams the service on video, a member at home can keep watching and follow the words in their own language on the phone.
The people who already visit the sick and the elderly are the right people to bring this to them. Add one line to the visiting routine: make sure the person has the link, and that they have tried it once. For a hospital visit, bring a pair of earbuds. For an older member, write the passcode on a card by the phone.
It costs nothing for the listener, and it does not change anything about your service. The same room serves the guests in the building and the members at home. If you are setting it up for the first time, our step by step set-up guide walks you through it, and more about the listener's side is on how it works for listeners.
Since 26 January 2026 listeners can make the text bigger and set the volume of the voice from the settings on their phone. For an older member reading in bed, or a listener in a hospital ward with the volume low, that makes the difference.
Since 20 June 2026 a church can let listeners invite others from inside the room. When the speaker allows it, a listener who is following can share the room with a relative or a friend in a few taps, at the very moment they think of it.
Since September 2026 every church room also has its own short web address, such as mulingstream.com/your-church. It always leads straight into your room and never changes, so a member can type it, save it, or have it written on a card by the phone.
Since 17 October 2026 the page a listener lands on asks first which language they want, and only then lets them in. If the speaker has not started yet, they can join anyway, and their language is ready the moment the service begins. Try it on a phone below, or open the listener demo room.
