This past weekend I asked my youth group to think about volunteering to manage and upload any sermoncasts that we create. Usually, the youth group is about many things within the church and are often at the forefront of technology related requests. However, I wanted to give them an opportunity to do something that can be a significant presence for the church. I am hopeful one or more of them will volunteer.

I know folks in church that can not attend for many reasons. In addition, there will be others who come across our church website and may listen now and again. If all goes well, I can even see expanding the ministry to include copies of sermons on CD. I know many ministries do this, but St. Margaret’s has dabbled in technology and often uses it when something else is not possible.

I also hope this serves to introduce our members to a variety of ministry possibilities.

[Update] Still no volunteers. I expected at least one of the youth to stand up and say, ‘Yes, I will do it’. However, I am not going to press them. I want a personal commitment, not guilt because your youth minister asked again.
