Thank you to ALL the organizers of the Western Volunteer Appreciation evening!!! It was a blast, as the photo’s will show.
Everyone got in with the spirit of the evening, dressing up to compliment the décor.
Each year one area of help is highlighted, this year it was the Road Crew that were honoured. They all received awesome T-Shirts to help them stand out and be noticed. Well done guys on all the work that you do early on Sunday mornings while most of us still sleep.
Two other couples were also honoured for there commitment and enthusiasm first were Gary and Robyn Coleman, who from the start of the church moving to Old Mutual have been there every Sunday morning, helping iron out all the kinks to get it into the smooth running machine it is now. Special mention went to their kids, who would tag along in the early hours of the morning, who were made honorary Road Crew members.
Another couple, Morgan and Kelly, were especially thanked as they were a crucial element in the design and creation of InsideOut, our teen environment at The Attic (old church building).
Unfortunately, not everyone can be singled out, but everyone is appreciated for all you do.
Thank you for all your dedication and help throughout the year.
Mixing, switching, pressing, zooming, sliding, plugging
Because I used to run a team of tech guys and girls at a relatively small church in Pinelands. I am always appreciative of all the hard work that goes into designing, setting up, mixing, switching, pressing, zooming, sliding, plugging etc that goes into tech side of the service on a Sunday. And in saying that I don’t want to sideline all the other amazing people who get involved in all aspects of a Sunday service, you just guys contribute in amazing ways that I don’t even begin to understand.
I just read an article on a blog written by one of the Media guys at a fairly large US Church in which he celebrates the work of the guys just like ours who do so much weak in and week out. I thought I would share it with you here.
If you are a volunteer (tech or otherwise) in any of our environments , go and check out the article here, he is talking about YOU.
God bless and thanks for being involved.
