The Benifits for the Church to Use Social Networking
Every other month we host a discussion of a hot topic and offer folks free food. The topics of discussion have ranged from seeking justice, to missions, to sexuality and marriage. This month we are talking about Holiness. In preparation for this event I made a facebook event and sent it out to 70 people that I knew might be interested in attending.
Now here comes the magic. 109 people have been invited. that means that folks in our church are using facebook to let people who are not yet connected to our church community about events that we are hosting. It also gives us a decent headcount so that we can plan for food.
Score one for Jesus.
