Random things about me

I have my own Beauty Salon
I am addicted to scrap booking
I have a cockatiel called Freddie Mercury ( which I think is possessed)

Description of job:

As one of the Early Bird breakfast ladies it’s my job to have fresh hot coffee and some breakfast ready for the guys and girls that have help to make the environment what it is on a Sunday. It’s a small way to say thanks to them, especially seeing some of them are up from 5:30 am. I also then take them some snacks just before the service starts to refuel their tummies.

My Sunday Schedule

These times were recorded prior to the 09:30 service time change.

Time	What	Description or additional Notes
06:30	Arrive and set up	If I’m doing the breakfast I arrive and start fetching the water for the coffee. We don’t have a sink or tap close by so we commute to the toilets. We just remind ourselves that its good exercise.
07:45	Team arrives	About 30 hungry volunteers arrive to devour the food and coffee.
8:30	We have a pray session.	We pray about the service that many people will be blessed and grow in their relationship with God.
9:30	Pack up

My Sunday Schedule
These times were recorded prior to the 09:30 service time change.

Time	What	Description or additional Notes
07:30	Meet for practice	Meet with the other actors in The Word and run through our script a few times and try come up with some character interactions while on stage. Since we don’t have time to practice during the week this is really the first practice we have.
08:00	Breakfast	We all sit down and relax for a bit while we grab something small to eat and keep us going through the morning.
08:15	Microphone collection	Collect my microphone and make sure it is working correctly and fits properly.
08:30	Briefing and prayer	We gather as a group and pray for all the different aspects of the show. We also have a briefing on the mornings activities and any specific stage requirements etc.
08:45	Sound check	The sound guys check your input and output volume to make sure you won’t blast anyone deaf during the show.
08:50	Run-through	Basically like a dress rehearsal. We run through the show from beginning to end. We often practice a few small items again at the end to make sure we get it right later.
10:00	Silence on stage	Find a spot to either practice again or relax before the show begins.
10:15	Backstage	Find a spot to sit backstage to watch the show on a TV waiting for your segment to start.
10:30	Show begins	Obviously this is where the nerves start to take over.
±10:55	Word Segment	Time to shine. The segment begins and pray you remember your lines.
11:15	Show ends	The show draws to a close unless Tom starts rambling or does something off the wall.

Contributor to this blog

Description of job:

I lead a team that films and edits all the non North Point Community Church video elements (you know the ones without American voices). We are currently trying to stream line this process in order to be ahead in the planning and to not hand in the video content to be displayed on the day it is displayed.

At the moment I am mostly busy putting the 10B4 together for Sundays – something I want to hand over to young and talented individual – keen?

On a Sunday the Video team that I am part of puts up the Screen, Projector, helps with the lights, camera, Creche TV. At the moment it is a juggle with my son Stephen, ooo. It is my dream to do live video up on the screen with words over layered and lead crew involved in this Visual DJ’ing for Church – Something like Buckhead Church , check it.
