It’s been 1.5 months since this blog was started for The Great Big Christmas Giveaway (TGBCG).

We are now occupying the top 4 results in the google search for “Great Big Christmas Giveaway”, and the top 2 for “Big Christmas Giveaway”!  We are also somewhere on the 1st page for “Great Christmas Giveaway”, “Great Big Giveaway”, and “Christmas Giveaway”. However, we are not found in the results for “Christmas Present”.

We will be giving out prizes and gifts as part of our Christmas giveaway – thanks to our generous sponsors. However, TGBCG is really not about prizes. It is about gifts or presents. And “presents”, in a way, paint a more formal picture of giving.

As with every gift or present, there needs to be a giver and a receiver. We have enough gifts/presents for everyone. Will you, your family, and your friends come to receive your present?

Yet another time for all of us to gather and commit ourselves and TGBCG to God!

Plugged on Prayer on 13 Nov, Fri, 8 pm to 10 pm, at BFEC. Join us as we pray for TGBCG!

Hello everyone,

Come Sunday, 15 November 2009, we are setting out to the Frankel/Siglap/Dunbar Walk neighbourhood to tell people about TGBCG. Sign up with the TGBCG Publicity Team on Sunday for this meaningful time! Even better, do this with your cell group.

Invitation open only to BFEC members! Sign up quick!

Prayer Focus : SALT
“That which …we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, …this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.” – 1 John 1:1

Pray :

• That the Sound and Lighting will serve to enhance our proclamation of Christ, the living Word.
• For coordinator, Ian Koh, to have enough people to deploy.
• For the team to work skilfully to execute all special needs.
• For every team member to know their role & serve with passion.

The SALT team has been busy. Here are some of the areas they have been working on, and their concerns…

Sound

• Work out the number of microphones required
• Work out the allocation (Who gets what type of microphones, passing of microphones etc…)

Lights

• Appropriate use of colours
• Effect of colours e.g. what do you get when you mix a blue shirt with yellow lights?

Appropriate placement of equipment

• Get the right sound and light effect
• Does not get in the way (onstage, backstage, and in the control room)

Suitable people who are willing to serve

• Need people to learn and help operate the equipment
• A crew that is willing to spend time at rehearsals
