Your church was just given a data projector and you want to use it to display the lyrics of songs. You were thinking of using PowerPoint, but after a test found it very unwieldy. Then someone suggested that you look at commercial church presentation software, but when you looked at the price tag, you knew your church could not afford that kind of money. You begin to wonder if you should just go back to hymn books and just leave projection of song words to bigger churches who can afford to do it.
Hold onto your dreams, because OpenLP is free. And it's not just a below-standard freebie thing, it's a powerful, elegant open source application. What does that mean? It means that the code that the developers write is available to you. But more than that, it means that OpenLP is, and always will be, free. Free to download, free to use, free to give to all your friends. Unlimited freedom, like the freedom we find in Christ.
Money isn't a problem for your church, but you've been using a really old program that someone installed a few years ago, and now it is showing its age. You can always upgrade, in the hopes that those bugs you've had to live with are fixed, but will it have all the new features you want?
OpenLP is designed to bring you maximum features with minimum effort. Not only that, but OpenLP can also import songs from many other presentation programs, ensuring a smooth transition from your old package to a new, up-to-date one.
You'll also get upgrades along the way which fix your bugs and introduce new features. The developers are open and friendly, and welcome input from their users, so you know your feedback is not falling on deaf ears. Having a say in what happens has never been easier!
Import songs from a variety of sources, tag verse types, set ordering of verses, add formatting, manage authors, search through songs and even add backing tracks to songs for when your band is on holiday.
Import Bibles from a number of formats, or even download a few verses you need from a Bible site, display verses in varying formats, easily search verses by scripture reference (e.g. Luke 12:10-17) or by phrase.
Integration with PowerPoint, PowerPoint Viewer and LibreOffice Impress on Windows and LibreOffice Impress on Linux/FreeBSD means that you can import your presentations into OpenLP and control them via OpenLP.
Import pictures into OpenLP and organise them into folders. Create slide-shows by simply selecting multiple songs and drag-and-dropping the selection into the service, with auto-forwarding.
Integration with VLC means that you can display almost any video file and play almost any audio file in OpenLP. Using VLC means that a wide variety of formats are supported.
Store your liturgy, announcements, or other custom slides in OpenLP. Just like a song, but with less structure, custom slides can also contain formatting and can be set to loop.
Control OpenLP remotely using any tablet or phone running Android using our App in the Google Play Store. Search, go live, control slides, and more. Also accessible via any phone's web browser.
Built-in stage view accessible from any device with a web browser. Use any device on the local network as your stage monitor, meaning unlimited stage monitors without any extra hardware constraints.

At our Bible college, we decided to switch to OpenLP because it was free. We found it to be feature-rich and easy to use. It's also constantly improving.
Hello, I love your software! Praise the Lord. The fact that you all are willing to provide this for free is amazing.
OpenLP has made a tremendous positive impact on our services. The singing has increased tenfold as even those with poor eyesight can clearly see the onscreen lyrics.
I have been using OpenLP for a couple of years and I found it very easy to navigate and despite never having used this type of software before was able to get a service up and running in a couple of minutes once I had installed the program.
Just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for a great product. I'm traveling around to small churches helping them upgrade their media environments. With little or no budgets, OpenLP has been a great help. I wish I could capture the look on a pastor's face when I tell him it's a free software.
Sunday morning I set the up projector, gave a 10 minute lesson to the young lady who does our overheads. Everything went smoothly. She was so excited, the congregation thought it was great, our priest was ecstatic.
