Our luck finally ran out last Sunday! Over the past two years, we have come to rely on our laptop/projector setup more and more for our services. During that time, a few of our congregation have sort of evolved into our in-house experts at running the DVD's and Powerpoints during the service.
We've never really kept an organized list of who's running the computer for each Sunday--at least one of the experts is usually in the service and steps in. Well, Labor Day weekend found all of our experts on vacation! And worse, we didn't realize it until 10 minutes before the service began!
So, a few of us teamed up and attempted to run the system. "How hard can it be? It's just Powerpoint and a couple of DVD's? Right?" Not quite.
So, we learned our lesson. The New Tech team met last night and we've decided to organize this effort a bit. We're going to develop a curriculum, draw up a list of operators and devise a schedule. We'll make sure we're not caught without an AV driver again!
