Newsletter

I just finished writing and sending out our email ministry newsletter. I find this a difficult task and it often gets put off a week or two or three until it becomes abscessed and then it has to be pulled, I mean written up, before people think we’re dead.

We used to send everything by regular post, then email and post. Now it’s just email. When Randy and Sandra encouraged me to blog, this became a primary way of keeping people up to date, but it’s not a habit for all supporters to automatically surf over to Evendays. I understand.

One day, blogs won’t fill the gap either. Both Wife and Daughter are on Facebook now, which explains the current financial recession in the USA. Facebook, at least when you start it, is a FULL TIME JOB.

I’m not saying Facebook is not worth it. Wife has had contact with people she loves dearly but had heard from only twice this millineum. She and Daughter compare who has whom as friends (Daughter has more) and then talk about writing on someone’s wall or getting or sending tickles or pokes (or something).

For now, I’ll stick to 2 hours a week on blogs.

    I’m with you Bro. I haven’t got into the “My Space / Facebook” thing as well. Besides, I compare myself to others by how many “links” I have on my blog.

    Come on, Dad! Get Facebook! I’ll poke you, promise.

    Facebook, eh? I’ll have to look ‘em up. I’ve found that Facebook is a great way to stay in touch with my former students. There are few things better than a poke from an ex-mathlete.

    I wasn’t impressed with My Space and have no intention of going to Facebook. Blogging is enough for this neanderthal.

    I feel the same way about bulletin articles - which is why I respectfully decline.
