Absolutely love the new design for this blog; so much easier to read. Even more to the point, I’m [insert overblown adverb] by your timed coordination with the Holy Spirit — in my life.
This morning I woke up thinking I should write a post for my #epatient community and colleagues about the “loneliness of the long distance illness” and how churches need to step up — and get more creative — about efforts to reach those of us who just cannot attend church building as often as we’d like.
As ever, I’m grateful for your vision, especially relative to communications ministry.
I decided to write this post quickly Sunday morning as most of out local churches canceled worship services because of a snow storm. I also know many families that get caught at home with the cold, flu, stomach bug season in the winter, so I thought this list would help there too…and anyone with chronic illness.
Our neighboring Episcopal congregation, Church of the Good Shepherd, Town and Country, MO received a ($10K or maybe $20K) grant to set up live streaming, recording, and webcasting of worship services. That combined with a dedicated communications team has brought them success. As with all thing techy, prices are reducing quickly and I think it will become easier for average congregations to use this technology.
Thank you for all of your encouragement and guidance on the blog! I have been changing the theme on this blog every few weeks now, and I think I will stick with this one for a while. I like the the font and slider on the front page.
