Explanation of Duties
The Church Coordinator is required to be at any function involving the use of our facilities.

A Sound Technician from First Baptist Church is needed if any music requires the use of microphones, tapes, and/or CDs.
The Facility Coordinator is responsible for arranging furniture in the sanctuary, bride's room, groom's room, or reception area.
