It's been a busy week. I was determined last week to put in place some of the communication pieces that have been disorganized or non-existent. Last week I was working to get the church website in order so that new students would get the latest info when they visited. I have created a new email account for work at church, and I have the old email accounts forwarding mail to the new one. I created this new church-related blog and have also resumed posting on another blog that I do for our family. My Facebook account is up to date and I am using it to communicate with some of my friends. Yesterday I was contacted by an old high school friend that I have not talked with for decades.
All in all -- a productive week. Tonight I am finishing work on the sermon for the morning. We have a retired prof coming in to talk about his involvement with prison ministries. He will talk about the whole range of possibilities of ministry with prisoners -- from baking cookies to making visits. At one time I made regular visits with a church group in a maximum security prison. Now I visit in the prisons from time to time when family members phone (sometimes from out of state) and ask me to visit someone. Jesus, in his teaching, speaks about caring for prisoners and other neglected persons in society. I am hoping that someone will hear our speaker and decide that they want to be involved.
