A-Chat
We have setup our own instant messenger server just for our Ministers, called A-Chat.
This way you can communicate between each other, the staff, and friends on other networks easily.
The A-Chat network allows you to add your AIM, GoogleTalk, Yahoo, ICQ, MSN, and Gadu accounts, that way you only need one client to talk to everyone!
If you use the suggested free Psi messenger client, simply go to “service discovery”, right click the service you want to add and click register. provide your login credentials, hit save and your done. All your buddies will show up in the list.
If you are a Minister at the FCA you already have a username on our A-Chat Instant Messenger service for FREE. We suggest using the free IM client: Psi but we do offer a WebClient if you don’t want to install anything.
These are the settings you will need to enter into your IM client
Server(Host): firstchurchofatheism.com
Port: 5222 (or 5223 for SSL)
Username: USER-NAME@firstchurchofatheism.com
Password: SAME AS SITE LOGIN
NO SPACES OR PERIODS ALLOWED IN A-CHAT USERNAME!! You MUST use dashs instead of spaces and drop periods completely.
Example: A site username of
‘Paul J. McMaster’
becomes an A-Chat username of
‘Paul-J-McMaster’
email us if you lost your username or password
If you’re not a minister, these are some of the other services we connect to. Feel free to IM the staff with questions or comments!
