     Media Ministry Office: 205.228.1004          Director of Media: Chad Summers          Ministry Assistants: Stephanie Goforth & David Youngstrom    
 
  The Media Ministry of First Baptist Church Trussville covers a wide range of areas, all centered on communicating the good news of Jesus Christ in new and creative ways.  These areas include
printing and publications (primarily our worship guides and weekly newsletter, The Link), video production and editing for worship service and message enhancement, and the design and maintenance of the website you're viewing right now.  In addition, it also covers worship through
the technical arts, including sound, lighting and video production on Sundays.

The Media Ministry is comprised of very dedicated, yet unselfish volunteers, serving behind
the scenes for the glory of God. 
Chad Summers and David Youngstrom lead this small army of volunteers making up the Sunday Media Team.

The basic hope in the Media Ministry is that you will barely notice us; if that's the case, then we are doing our job well.  This ministry's focus is to enhance the communication of our staff with the membership and prospects in our community, wrapping the name and message of Christ in quality, while providing consistency in all of our visual, audible, web and print communication.

 

 
 
 
  Worship Production   Serving This Sunday...  
  The Media Ministry plays an important role in what takes place in the Sanctuary and Annex on Sundays. But the work begins much earlier in the week through worship planning with the Pastor, worship leaders and Ministry Team. For each service, volunteers are in place to run the sound board, record the service, operate lighting, provide graphics and other computer generated features for the IMAG screens and man our video cameras.

 

In all, it takes eleven volunteers to make our Sunday morning services happen from the technical end of things. These volunteers are selfless and dedicated, providing their time and talents to the ongoing needs of our church.

 

Volunteers serve on a three month, rotating schedule. The goal of the Media Ministry is to revolve personnel enough so that the majority of the time they are able to take part in Sunday School, worship and other "normal" aspects of Sunday morning.

  Print & Publications
The two main publications that the Media Ministry produces is The Link Monthly and First Words, the worship guides distributed on Sundays. 

The Link Monthly is a 12-page custom newsletter, designed each month for 12 months out of the year.  Containing helpful information and a calendar of events for the coming month, as well as interesting features on the lives and experiences of our membership. Currently this newsletter is mailed to over 1,800 households per month. 

 

First Words is designed each week to accompany the coming Sunday's worship service.  This worship guide contains current information regarding the happenings at our church for the next seven days, as well as a perforated tab letting you sign up for coming events, request information and/or submit prayer requests without ever having to leave their seat.

 

Other publications are produced as-needed for departmental use and/or special events.  The overall goal is to package whatever we do with excellence, communicating the message in a clear and creative way.
