I am learning that people really like the opportunity to communicate about many things at all times of the day. In the past few days, I have witnessed or commented on the following:
Youth asking others to come and volunteer unload pumpkins at our pumpkin patch
Someone else at the pumpkin unloading saw my post with [...]
It’s the inevitable question for any ministry coordinator – “Sorry to call you so late this (Saturday) evening, but I won’t be at church tomorrow, maybe you can find someone else to replace me”. No matter how many times you offer a ministry roster and remind all involved that locating their replacement is their [...]
It turns out that almost all the kids in my youth group have a YouTube page with videos. Now, if I can only get them interested in doing something for the church. Hmm…. Oh wait! We are doing something – that’s our summer project.

Here it is in all its glory.
Ain’t it grand?

I have a friend at church that has asked me repeatedly about the possibility of either a podcasting or live streaming our church sermons. Actually, Fr. Bob’s sermons. Anyway, I told him that from all the reading I have done on the web and folks at work, it seems possible and faily straight forward. What [...]
It’s altogether easy to forget that someone actually had to put up money to pay for the buildings we use each week to praise and worship.
