Technology
Our technology team is always recruiting new members.
If you have an interest in computers, audio-visual equipment, networking, communications, etc., we invite you to be a part of our behind-the-scenes ministry bringing the sights and sounds of St. Jude's to life on Sunday mornings and beyond.
Livestreaming: A Basic Introduction
To decide whether this ministry is right for you, check out our short series of introductory videos.
We also invite you to shadow us at the 10:30 a.m. service any Sunday. Stop by the technology table around 9:30 a.m. and let us know you are interested. We'll be happy to show you the basics, answer your questions, and even let you take a turn on the equipment if you feel comfortable.
Don't get intimidated. There's a learning curve, but we all started somewhere. Once you get the hang of things, it can even be a lot of fun.
This would be a great ministry for teens and young adults who are digital natives. We'll be glad to sign off on community service forms for your volunteer hours.
