ONE | 005

One God, One Voice, One Night, was the tag line for a youth night us as students planned, prepped for, and ran last Friday night. CVYN (Cowichan Valley Youth Night) was about bringing together different youth groups in the area for a night of worship, games and a message. To be able to show the youth that there are more people in their schools and communities that are Christians and to just be able just all gather as one.

My specific role for the night was Greeting and Moving people through, which consisted of hopping on the two minibusses that arrived and welcoming them, that's all. I was also assigned to sound but that quickly changed to A/V as there was none else assigned to any of that, and I started working on some graphic design for the evening which turned into a whole list of different aspects of media for the night. From a countdown/intro to backgrounds, speaker slides, and various other media projects it gave me something to actually prepare for.

My original assigned role provided no chance for me to be challenged or stretched. Doing media provided the chance to take other peoples visions and ideas for the night and bring them to life, from connecting with both the speakers on theirs themes and main verses to games on how to help them visually provided the chance to both use my creative skills as well as work with other peoples visions. Getting a general idea of what the message was going to entail helped me create both a Pre and Post playlist to help convey the idea we wanted the youth to walk away with. 

That's all for now folks,

Take Care.
