Do you go there often? Did you ever leave anything there for others to find? Ever gone there to pick something up? If you’re wondering what I’m talking about, I’m referring to the this web site: www.trinityhamburg.org
It is the 21st century you know and even people you might not imagine are using the Internet for all sorts of reasons. It’s the biggest library anyone has ever seen and all you have to do is introduce yourself to the librarian (they call it a search engine now) and you can get information about anything you might want to know or see or even purchase.
So what does all this have to do with Trinity Church and our little web site? Well, to begin with, out little web site isn’t so little. It’s just loaded with stuff about Trinity and what we are about as a Christian community. If you explore the site you’ll find just about everything you need to know about our worship services, calendar of upcoming events, service programs and even an online directory of members (that one’s only available to members, not the general public). Imagine not having to try to remember the last place you left the church directory book. Even better – no more lining out phone numbers and writing in new ones!
Fr. Shawn, Sandy Gawron and Gary Faulkner have done a remarkable job of constructing our web site as a tool for us to use to reach out to our own members who may be homebound or far from home. Like all things on the internet, our website is still evolving. We could add discussion forums for ongoing conversations and ministry coordination or we can talk to the whole congregation through our own “blog” posted to the web site. We can sign up for parish events and even see who’s coming without driving over to look at the paper sheet in the Parish Hall! The possibilities are limitless. We, as a community, have this wonderful new tool to help us to communicate within our congregation as well as a way to get our message of God’s love for us and His gift of Grace given freely to all men through His Son Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.
But there is a problem... Continue reading Look and See(k)! |
