Join us for a two-day, highly interactive Media Ministry Conference at Bethel A.M.E. Church on Friday, January 30th and Saturday, January 31st. This conference is designed to train and equip media ministry teams from across Boston through hands-on learning, real-time problem solving, and practical instruction led by experienced coaches.

Friday Night – Interactive Service Simulation (7:00–9:30 PM)

Friday night opens with a unique worship service designed specifically for training. Throughout the evening, the service will be intentionally paused to highlight real audiovisual challenges that churches face every Sunday.

Participants will rotate into the media booth to:

• identify problems,

• troubleshoot under pressure,

• and attempt to restore the service flow in real time.

Teams will have limited time to solve each issue, and the night concludes with a live Q&A that breaks down what happened and why. This interactive kickoff gives attendees rare practice in a safe, guided environment.

Saturday – Full Day of Hands-On Workshops (9:30 AM–5:00 PM)

Saturday offers a full schedule of practical, skill-building workshops covering:

• Graphics & visual design

• Sound mixing in challenging spaces

• Stage and lighting design

• Camera switching & directing

• ProPresenter workflows

Each workshop includes live demonstrations, guided practice, and real tools, allowing attendees to learn by doing—not just listening.

BAVCon26 is created for churches that want to strengthen their media ministry, improve the Sunday experience, and build confident, skilled volunteers. Through immersive activities, teamwork, and expert instruction, attendees will walk away better equipped to serve with excellence.
