The Lord helped us all present the important message
of salvation through song and drama. We performed
"Christmas at Home" by Ron and Shelley Hamilton.
Now, it's time to take notes for improvement or to record
things we'd like for future programs.
Here are several things to remember when making that list:
*Start practicing early enough in the year to compensate
for missed practices due to revivals or other special meetings
that require extra preparedness for the choir.
*Did everyone have their cues in order for things to run smoothly?
(Sound crew needs a script to turn mics on and off at the right time)
*Have Pastor make necessary announcements the evening of the
program to ensure a smooth and peaceful night in the congregation.
(Example: nursery provided for young ones, no flash photography, etc.)
*Video camera should be in a place ABOVE the congregation to avoid
catching glimpses of people leaving or coming during program which
can block view of performance. Our whole purpose for videoing is
to capture memories and to eventually show the choir sometime in
the near future. Seeing their performance will excite them...
as they get a chance to see and truly experience the program as a
whole. The video also gives us something to view after the fact
to see how to improve. We all need to strive to do our very best to
communicate God's message of salvation.
These are just a few things to think over for next year's
Christmas program.
Adequate preparedness results in a more effective gospel message.
The following Bible verse keeps me in focus...
Colossians 3:23 "And whatsoever ye do, do it HEARTILY,
as to the Lord, and not unto men."
