The Bethel AV Teams serve quietly behind the scenes by working together in controlling the audio, lighting, worship computer and video systems for all worship services. Our primary task is to assist  pastors, staff, council, ministry teams, lay readers and music teams in planning as well as setting the proper visual and audio environment for each worship service at Bethel. We try to anticipate all of the AV needs and insure a smooth worship experience. 

Our various teams make sure that the songs & weekly worship bulletins are put into the worship computer; control & adjust the microphones as they are needed, replace batteries for the pastor wireless MIC's; make sure that guest speakers and people giving the children's message are properly mic'd; lighting is adjusted if needed; video record services and special projects as needed; edit videos into projects to place on our website or on DVD's such as baptisms or other ministry programs; AV support for the Praise Team rehearsal each Tuesday night; Mid-week Services & Studies as needed.

You do not need to be a “techie” person to serve on most of our teams, in fact, we simply want people with servant hearts with a supportive team attitude. We have all ages on our teams, in fact, one of our teams, for our Praise Service, is made up totally with youth!

We are also always on the lookout for people who do have a little more technical training to help us in various creative aspects to our ministry.
