Presbytery holds seminar on usage of latest technologies for evangelistic purposes

With the popularization of digital cameras in recent years, it seems everyone owns one – though many don’t know how to use it to take good pictures.

“My congregation often shows me pictures that make me feel dizzy!” joked Kanhsichieh Presbyterian Church pastor, Rev. Liu Bo-chao, who also serves as Mass Communication Committee Director for Tainan Presbytery.

Seeing the need to rectify this problem, the committee invited a professional photographer and held a seminar at Liu’s church on February 19, 2011, to help anyone in need of a tutorial on using digital cameras.

The seminar was very successful and attracted 120 people, including pastors and laymen, and the speaker used humorous and easy-to-understand language to explain basic functions such as photo composition, focus, aperture, shutter, and exposure compensation. He stressed though few people are born a gifted artist, everyone can become a good photographer with some practice.

This is the second time the Presbytery has held a seminar on photography. Liu said popular electronic devices such as digital cameras or popular internet technologies such as Facebook and blogs can be great means to share testimonies and the gospel message with others and thus become great evangelistic and networking tools.

Another seminar is scheduled on March 14, 2011 on navigating iWork Pages for anyone who might want to use it when laying out or printing church bulletins or church event posters. The seminar will also be held at Kanhsichieh Presbyterian Church. For more information, contact Rev. Tsai at (06) 237-1793
