Power Sound’s New Digital Bulletin® - an exciting alternative to paper Church Bulletins


Eliminate clutter with new "Digital Signage" instead of unruly Bulletin Boards

PSNE’s church-inspired digital signage is a product designed to help churches communicate more effectively.
An exciting alternative to outdated paper Church Bulletins; Power Sound of New England, (PSNE) offers custom Digital Bulletins®. Churches want a way to reach their congregation that is more visually engaging. As part of the design of church video projection and AV installation projects a church digital signage system is an effective tool to reach out to parishioners to communicate church news, schedules, religious education schedules, and other timely information.
As we wrote about in our last post, Power Sound of New England recently completed Audio Visual System renovation project featuring our new Digital Bulletin® at St. Mary Parish in Chelmsford MA. The church video system design and AV installation project at St. Mary Parish lent itself naturally to the digital signage application.
The Project: The AV renovation project is part of a series of audio visual systems’ application the parish has undertaken to deepen the connection to the worship. Power Sound of New England has been trusted by St. Mary for the design and installation of their audio visual systems for many years. We are honred to have earned that trust.
The PSNE Digital Bulletin® is displayed on vivid LCD monitors; Digital Bulletin is perfect for narthex, community hall, Sunday school, or rectory. Vivid displays capture and keep viewers’ attention far more than old-fashioned printed bulletins.

“The new digital signage is an exciting addition for the parish. We’ll run 24 hour displays featuring bulletin articles, photos of special parish events and various parish news announcements. And, Power Sound has offered any help we need with the new system. As we grow into the technology we look forward to adding other exciting features that will benefit our parishioners."   ~ Paul Firicano, Business Manager; St. Mary Parish


Flexible format. Example of 3-zone screen.
Features & Benefits: During AV installation projects, PSNE integrates the Digital Bulletin with video projection systems or it can be a standalone product. Flexibility and ease of use is bar far the most tangible benefit of the PSNE Digital Bulletin. Information is more visual than ever. The system increases communication opportunities throughout the congregation. System features include flexible display formatting. Displays can feature News, Photos, Video, RSS feeds and more.
Church video projection featuring the Digital Bulletin offers an attractive way to replace clutter of traditional paper bulletins using vivid monitors to display religious imagery, church messages and meeting announcements; to announce upcoming classes and meetings and highlight fundraising appeals or gatherings. In the lobby, office or community hall, Digital Bulletin is also ideal for webcasts, weather, event announcements, and much more. And, they totally eliminate crowded unsightly bulletin boards. "We need to remove a plethora of unwanted notices from our lobby bulletin board, actually several times a day." said a pastor about his desire to see digital signage replace the parish bulletin board.
Programming and updating is straightforward for those with intermediate computer proficiency. PSNE offers programs to maintain the digital signage system and manage programming for churches, or for parishes desiring to manage their own updates we will train staff to mange programming in-house.
Churches have shared many ways they could put the Digital Bulletin to work to communicate in an engaging, effective, visual way. At Power Sound of New England we have customized our Digital Bulletin to meet the unique needs of our parish customers.  “We look forward to feedback from our parish customers”, said Troy Jennings, “as to how we can tailor a Digital Bulletin system to their individual needs.”
