Gregory West: Making Church a Digital Education Centre

If you are falling short on ideas to attract new people to the church (during the week) you might want to look to what people are doing online.

• Digital Photography
• Social Networking
• Genealogy

In fact, the main group that is extremely active online and are into social networking today are the retiring Baby Boomers. What a great audience to attract to your church. Many of them missed the computer age, or maybe worked in a place with a computer at a "dumb terminal" and only learned what the specific work programs required and nothing more. What a great target audience to attract. Of course there are the seniors who are the biggest buyers of laptops and want to find their old friends...dead or alive! Hey, I am not joking here.
