Sessions

Below are the subjects we have approved, organized by tracks.
 

KEYNOTE - Introduction

Wonders happen when technology, musicians and worship come together. Wonders happen when audio, video and multi-media work together as a team. Confidence and unity are easier found when we have a better understanding of the part each must play and how we put it all together. Not unlike the human body, when we stop and think about it. We will be challenged to improve our abilities in various areas and better serve together with the musicians, worship teams and pastors.
 

KEYNOTE - Finale

Our team will be challenged to put together a united effort from the diversity of technology studied. Prizes and awards are also planned and will be given out in the Final Keynote Session.
