The 43rd Carolina Conference Constituency Session |
|
|
This meeting was different than past sessions due to Covid-19; first having to postpone for a year; and also reducing the number of attendees to only the those who needed to be present according to the Conference constitution and bylaws, aiding in social distancing measures. The Carolina Conference session is held over a long weekend with a notable, dynamic, devotional speaker. This maintains a focus on having the presence of the Holy Spirit’s presence during the proceedings as church business is discussed and voted on. This year the delegates were blessed by the spiritual guidance of Pastor and Evangelist Mark Finley. With each of his five presentations he drilled home the importance of the presence of the Holy Spirit. His prayers petitioned for God to send the Comforter to surround the meeting. |
|
|
The delegates completed all the agenda items, re-electing the Conference officers, directors and associate directors; electing members to serve on the Carolina Conference executive committee and voting on minor updates to the constitution and bylaws. This was all completed by sundown on Friday, leaving the remainder of the weekend free for spiritual growth. |

|
The Carolina Conference administration’s goals for the next quinquennium are published in the president’s report of the Issue 2, 2022 edition of the Carolina Action magazine, available at www.carolinaaction.org. Mark Finley’s messages can be found on all major podcasting platforms by searching “Carolina Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.” |

Mevo Multi-Camera You all have heard us talk about the Mevo cameras before. During the last few years they upped their streaming game by allowing you to connect multiple Mevo cameras wirelessly and still stream from your mobile devices (ie: phone or tablet). Initially, Mevo's multi-camera function only allowed you to connect up to three |

cameras, but they have updated their muti-camera app to now allow an "infinite" number of Mevo cameras to be connected. These cameras, while great used together, can also be used individually. This new app allows you to even add graphic sources to use in your stream (such as title slides, lower thirds and over the shoulder graphics), making a more dynamic presentation. But wait...that's not all! They have another app which allows you to turn any smart phone into a wireless microphone pack. The audio can be imported into the multi-camera app or their regular Mevo app by connecting your headset or a lavaliere microphone. For more information about all Mevo has to offer: Click Here |
