New Guidelines - New Rotation - Crew for May 13

New Guidelines

Here are the new Technical Arts Volunteer Guidelines For Sunday Morning
Teams. Please read them and I will send the new rotation soon. If your
availability has been affected by these new guidelines, please let me know
ASAP.
1. Belong: Please be a "participating member" of our church by attending at
least three Sunday morning services a month, the Sunday you serve can be
included, however it only counts as one service, not three. Attendance
consistency may affect positions on "special teams" and is a requirement for
team captains. Exceptions will be made on a case-by-case basis.

2. Respect: Please respect God and His house.
- Dress appropriately. Remember, you are serving in God's house, and we
honor Him by dressing professionally. No shorts, no t-shirts, and no
flip-flops.
- No food in the sanctuary at any time. Only drinks with lids are allowed,
and only if you have a "desk" position.
- Clean up after yourself. Throw away your cue sheets, trash, etc. before
you leave.

3. Serve: Please serve your schedule.
- Please make yourself available for ALL three services, unless you have a
Sunday school class where absences counts against you (such as
confirmation). Exceptions will be few, and on a case-by-case basis.
- Please be on time. The normal call time is 7:30 am on Sunday. This gives
time to explain the elements of the service, and for questions to be asked
about the service or equipment.
- If you are not able to work your scheduled Sunday, please find a
replacement or trade with another volunteer. Also please notify Stuart as
soon as possible.

This Sunday Is Mother's Day - Team B

This Sunday, Tina Yeager will be giving the message at all three services.
Here are the crew assignments.

Special Tech Opportunities

McLane Middle School Video Crew

McLane Middle School is holding their annual Awards Ceremony in our
Sanctuary on Thursday May 3. Since it is a full house for this event, they

presentation for walk-in. If you can help at this event with cameras, please
be here no later that 6:30 pm, May 3. I also would like to turn this into a
fund-raiser by selling DVDs of the events to parents, etc (pending approval
by the necessary people). But that will require a full crew. Please e-mail
me if you can help!
