In response to our January Issue of the East Ohio Today, Joseph Ellis, bell choir director supplied the communications staff with the story of the Minerva United Methodist Church video ministry. Ellis coordinates the ministry of seven whose love of video media has enriched the congregation. The ministry is available through television to church members who are shut ins, in nursing homes, or away for a Sunday.
Video is also a great way to get more people active in the church service.
We learn more about video production with each passing day, and have fun working to create a professional product that removes the focus on technical problems and puts it directly on the message of the service being recorded. Videos are also a great way to share your faith by sharing the tapes with others as well as encouraging friends and neighbors to 'tune in' to your time slot. The ministry has been an active video ministry for almost ten years. It has paid for itself by allowing others to see and join in worship. Work continues in updating and make the final product something that is clear and easy to understand for those who are worshipping at home.
