and network infrastructure on site. “It was important to
deliver a system that will serve the Abbey well into the
future; therefore, having the network infrastructure in
place now will allow the system to grow as the needs of
the monastery evolve,” says Clarke. “We’re proud to have
been on board since the very beginning and to have had
this opportunity to work with Brother Michael on a project that encompasses many different elements, from AV
to IT and security.”
The feedback from Saint Michael’s community of monks
and worshippers has been wholly positive, especially in
terms of the quality of the technology and how it is
discreetly installed to respect the architecture of the
Abbey. The services at Saint Michael’s are now successfully reaching a worldwide audience, with followers in the
United States, Canada, Asia and Australia regularly
watching the live stream broadcast of Sunday Mass.
“We have had many contractors over three very busy
years during the renovations, and Whitwam AVI have
been one of the best in terms of punctuality and communication,” confirms Father Abbot. “Following the
upgrade, we remain one of the most traditional communities in terms of our worship here at Saint Michael’s, but
we are now one of the most modern in terms of the
technology we use to promote that worship.”
