The last few days our church has received some very bad news about a two people our church family cares about deeply, one was in an automobile accident and one has called hospice to the home as he is facing his final days. While our church has reached out with personal visits, phone calls and cards, there is a need to keep up with both of these situations without being a burden to the families who are both physically and emotionally drained. Enter caringbridge.org and carepages.com both of these sites allow family members to post updates about their loved ones and keep the body of Christ updated through email alerts. This is a fantastic ministry for the local church, and I am very appreciative for those who are creative with the use of technology for the cause of Christ. In this ever chaging world let us embrace new technology that will help us to minister to one another.
