For the summer months we have traditionally had Sunday school. However, at the request of both parents and students, I am doing something different this year. We will still have class, but it will be completely voluntary.
How is this different from not having class? Well, I’m glad you asked.
I introduced the idea of using our summer months to work on the church website. We will meet and work on anything that needs to be done. I will bring my laptop, wireless mouse and keyboard and connect it to the projector. In turn, they will finally get their hands on my MacBook Pro and get a little hands on training in ministry. Some of the possible projects are:
- Setting up a YouTube channel
- Editing videos for the YouTube channel
- Getting photos from other church events to upload
- Suggestions on updating the website for possible visitors
From my perspective, its a win-win. The youth are happy and I get help working on the church website. I also get to set aside some time each week to update our content.
