Pope to priests: Go forth and blog

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

By ARIEL DAVID - Associated Press Writer
VATICAN CITY -- Pope Benedict XVI has a new commandment for priests struggling to get their message across: Go forth and blog.

The pope, whose own presence on the Web has heavily grown in recent years, urged priests on Saturday to use all multimedia tools at their disposal to preach the Gospel and engage in dialogue with people of other religions and cultures.

And just using e-mail or surfing the Web is often not enough: Priests should use cutting-edge technologies to express themselves and lead their communities, Benedict said in a message released by the Vatican.  Link to:  pope2you.net

Does your website have a Voice?

There is so much more that is possible with online technology once you move beyond a static brochure website. Web Church Media offers your church or study group, easy to use rich media, online tools to connect -  face to face. The beauty is, these modules work right within your current site (or you can even embed them into a Leadership blog). We can show you how it works and have your organization up and going in a few hours! Then your members simply use their browser, login and join your community. The modules can be further customized to look more like your site. 

Is the conversation meaningful?

So once the connection is in place - what now? Consider live interactive experiences for your members both during and after the service is concluded. Broadcast sermons and events, make documents available (such as church bulletins), and promote ongoing discussion forums related to sermons or any current topic or event. WCM learning tools enable you to lead the way by offering online eSeminars and Podules given by established thought leaders, and hosted by your group. 

Does the Voice carry?

So now, even small organizations can have cost-effective communication technology that will empower them to reach out and grow. Consider how you could extend the reach of your message by leveraging the kind of technology that was only available to the largest organizations with IT departments and programmers on staff. Let us handle the technology and you concentrate on the Voice. As your reach expands we can scale up your online capacity.
