Empowering Worship Through Sound: Recap of Our One-Day Church Sound Training

Date: August 26, 2025
Organized By: Kathmandu Worship School

On Tuesday, August 26, 2025, we hosted a powerful and insightful One-Day Church Sound Training that brought together volunteers, sound techs, and worship leaders committed to enhancing the worship experience through better audio production.

Held at Ekata Milap Church, this training wasn’t just about turning knobs and setting up microphones—it was about stewardship, excellence, and creating a distraction-free environment where people can encounter God.

🎚️ What We Covered

The day was structured to balance theory, hands-on learning, and live demonstrations. Here’s a quick look at the key topics:

Understanding the Role of Sound in Worship
Signal Flow and System Setup
Microphone Techniques (for vocals, instruments, and ambient mics)
Gain Staging and EQ Basics
Mixing for Live Worship: Balancing the Band and Vocals
Feedback Elimination and Noise Control
Troubleshooting Common Sound Issues
Using Digital Mixers and Scene Presets

🙌 Who Attended

We were thrilled to welcome a mix of new volunteers, experienced sound engineers, and even pastors and worship leaders who wanted a better understanding of the audio side of ministry. The collaborative spirit was strong—many shared real-life challenges from their churches, leading to practical discussions and peer learning.

🎧 Hands-On Experience

A highlight of the day was the live mixing lab, where attendees got to apply what they’d learned using real gear. We split into teams and rotated through stations covering mic setup, gain structure, EQ adjustment, and mixing a live worship session.

💬 What People Said

“I’ve been volunteering on sound for a few months now, but today gave me confidence and clarity on how to mix better for worship.” – Participant

“This training helped us identify some of the problems we were having with feedback on Saturday. I’m excited to bring these solutions back to our church.” – Worship Leader

🙏 Why This Matters

Behind every sermon, every song, and every moment of prayer in a service is a sound team working quietly to make sure everything is heard clearly. When sound is excellent, it’s invisible—but its impact is powerful.

Our mission is to equip and encourage those serving in this critical area of ministry. Training like this ensures that our worship experiences are not only beautiful but free from technical distractions.
