How to use the Hearing Loop
A Hearing Loop has been installed in the Church as a supplement to the speaker system for those who are hearing aid-dependent. The technology requires a hearing aid with a "t-coil" (which most hearing aids have built-in) as part of the hearing aid. In order to access the Loop, the hearing aid must be programmed for the "T" setting, which can be done by a hearing aid specialist. When in the Church, the user can go to the "T" setting on their device and will be connected to the speaker system via their hearing aid.
