Mission Statement:  The St. John’s Multi-Media Team is committed to supporting the audio and video needs of the church.  We exist to positively reinforce the Word of God that is preached from the pulpit, sung from the choir loft or performed from the chancel.  Through our service we help others “Discover Their Place In God’s Heart”.

 

·         We will be professional in all we do.

·         We will act kindly to everyone we work with and will strive to give them the best support we possibly can.

·         We will encourage and support members on the team.

·         We will accept the teaching of others more knowledgeable than us.
