Our Annual Meeting on Sunday, March 30 provided the fitting opportunity to give a huge Thank You to our dear friend Ron Grant. Ron has faithfully served as our talented and caring audiovisual master of LiveStreaming for more than 12 years. Each Sunday he has arrived early, made sure the sound and video systems were set to go, and skillfully managed the changing sound and camera settings throughout each service.
Then he would go home and edit the recording of the service video each week to a perfect hour-long program and drive it over to the local TV station so that our weekly service could be viewed by both Internet and TV audiences. This labor of love started on the first day he walked into the sanctuary and was asked by Bob Wilson if he knew anything about audiovisual systems. Well, yes he did.
Rev. Nancy Soukup presented Ron with a celebratory plaque acknowledging his long years of volunteer service to FCCBristol through his audiovisual ministry and a token of appreciation from his church family.
Thank you, Ron, from the bottom of our hearts, for faithfully showing your love every week. For more than 12 years, you have given your church family hours of your time and talent to help share our message of love to members who could not attend worship in person and to open our arms to members of the wider community. You have truly embodied our church watchword: “No matter who you are, or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here.”
