This young outstanding Melbourne video producer Belinda Croft has been making videos for Christian ministry outlets for several years and as a young writer herself, has now put together three such writer 'awards' videos.
The first was the 2102 ARPA (Australasian Religious Press Association) from Wellington New Zealand last year, the second was highlighting the Basil Sellers Young Writer Awards for this year and now this third one, are the awards themselves from Melbourne 2013.
The Scotland sisters - Belinda Croft along with help from Laura Veloso, engage themselves with the narration, up front commentary, the selection and production. Their next video project are the ARPA awards from 2013.
Belinda is married with two children, Laura is married with three. Both have been engaged in short term missions to the South Pacific and in Laura's case also to Bangladesh and the Philippines.
They have a serious focus on Mission to those countries, nations and people who are less well off than Australians, and this involves a passion to see peoples come to the Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ.
In this sense their commission from the Lord is excellence in their ministries which includes video production along with their article writing for Christian Today.
