Worldwide Focus Day for Churches on 26 April
Many churches will highlight the potential of the Internet on 26 April, by holding an 'Internet Evangelism Day'. This international focus day program explains how the Web is a God-given tool for outreach, and provides help for Christians to use it effectively. Churches will build a presentation into their services or other activities on or near that day. This may be as short as a 2-minute announcement, or can be a longer program using the free downloads from IE Day's site: PowerPoint, video clips, music, drama scripts and handouts.
This website is also a year-round online resource guide with many ideas for web outreach and strategy, including a self-assessment tool to help churches develop their websites to reach outsiders in the community: www.InternetEvangelismDay.com/church-site-design.php
One surprising emphasis: "You don't need to be technical to be an online evangelist," says IE Day coordinator Tony Whittaker. "There are many ways you can share your faith in your spare time, without any technical knowledge at all." Church leaders have welcomed this resource. Elder statesman John Stott writes, "I am glad to commend Internet Evangelism Day." IE Day's site: www.InternetEvangelismDay.com |
