A lifelong MCC member, James joined the Technology Team as a volunteer in early summer 2021. He proved to be a great asset and was hired as an audio visual technician on July 1, 2021. He works alongside volunteers to produce the Sunday morning service live streams.
As a full-time fourth year student at the University of Kentucky, we are grateful he has made time to share his skills, his love of technology, and his love of church with us.
