South Africa - First Love Generation, a church based in Ruimsig Roodepoort, has invested in an L-Acoustics ARCS WiFo system knowing that their ministry will, in the future, include international speakers, worship bands and become a home to equip Christians on their daily walk.
Ordained Pastors Pieter and Tilla van Tonder initially left a mainstream church in 2006, planted a church on their property with another pastoral couple in 2007, and served together for nine years. During this time, the couple obtained permission to build a church, auditorium and lecture rooms on what used to be their tennis court. In January 2016, First Love Generation was officially born. Since the new church was formally launched, the numbers continue to grow year-on-year from the original handful of people.
DWR Distribution’s Victor Vermaak has been a friend to Pastor Pieter for many years and was pleased to assist with the installation of a new L-Acoustics ARCS WiFo system in a stereo configuration. “Pastor Pieter is a man who strives for excellence, and when it came to the audio, he wanted the right system that would cater for growth,” says Vermaak. “The set up includes one ARCS Wide and one Focus flown per side, and a pair of ground-stacked SB18i subs, again on either side of the stage. The system is run by an LA8 amplified controller.”
While the new audio has been welcomed, it has not been tested to the max, the ministry still being relatively small for the time being. “We are very happy with the building blocks and the quality, and are excited to see God’s plan unfold,” says Pastor Pieter. The ARCS WiFo has the headroom and the flexibility to grow as the ministry grows.
