"Hello, I am Jeff Trentham, I am the children’s pastor at Calvary Church and I would like to come to you on behalf of Expert Village just to give you some insight on how we capture the attention of kids and how we keep them energized and excited. At the back, we have a surf shack where we serve refreshments out of for the kids, we have prizes that we give away and serve drinks. These are just exciting things that the kids get to be apart of and they enjoy it and have a great time. Before the service starts, the kids are coming in and they are checking in, they are excited that they are going to get to play some games. We have got XBOX, we have got Play Station, we have got cool games at the back and so they just get to mingle around until the church service starts and so they can play games and have a lot of fun. After the service, they do the same thing, they can play games, they can watch the video on a screen and they can have a good time, all of this keeps their attention and keeps them excited."
