The goal of the Magnification Department is to promote and inspire the attendees of GGCC and incite all of us to worship and praise God as our purpose of living. The Department includes committee members from all three language services (Cantonese, English, and Mandarin). Our responsibilities include training and scheduling of worship teams and audio-visual personnel, maintenance of musical instruments, computers and sound systems, as well as general organization and maintenance of our worship inventory and facilities (Sanctuary and Gospel Hall). We are also responsible for training and scheduling of ushers and greeters for our Sunday worship services. It is our goal to organize musical events such as “Praise nights” and “Evangelical Musical Evening” in the near future, in order to encourage brothers and sisters to continue to learn about worshiping God as a life-style, and to use these events to reach out to our community.
