FreeWorship

FreeWorship is a flexible worship presentation software for Windows that enables church leaders to easily create and present worship lyrics, announcements, Bible verses, videos and sermon notes to their congregations. It provides a set of tools that allow users to customize and create their own worship presentations without needing to be an experienced programmer or graphic artist. The standard version is free forever with no time limit, while the optional FreeWorship Pro adds extra features for a monthly subscription or a one-off payment.
