About the Hearing Loop System at St. John's
St. John's provides support for our hearing impaired parishioners. Our Hearing Loop system provides a direct connection to our sound system for those who have difficulty hearing due to hearing loss or the inability to separate a speaker's voice from background noise.
If you have a t-coil option on your hearing aids, they can directly pick up the sound from our PA system without any extra gear. Just turn on the t-coil option as if you were talking on the phone. If your hearing aids don't have a t-coil option or you don't use hearing aids, any usher can provide you with a small portable receiver and a set of light-weight headphones. Using this system will make listening to our readers, rectors and choir much more like talking to someone nearby in a quiet room.
If you attend St. John’s and are having trouble understanding the speakers or hearing the choir, give our Hearing Loop system a try! If you still can't understand the sermon or a reading, well, perhaps some aspects of religion are just incomprensible ...
