How can the virtual community best serve the physical community?
Discussion started by Administrator , on 23 January 05:07 PM

I am really keen for ideas how this online community can best service the Bourne Parish "physical" community. Is it simply here to help people communicate? Extend reach of the church? Save paper so we don't have to print so much?

 

Any thoughts and ideas you may have on this subject I would urge you to share here.

 

Many thanks,

Rupert

I think that communication is a big one, as we hardly ever see each other....the reality of suburban existence! The big plus about being in a large ruralish village was that you were forever bumping into people. So you could develop an idea - any idea from a children's holiday club to a new study group - over a period of time. This helped us all to feel a way towards creating something which a lot of people felt happy buying into, and therefore made it a priority to support. My current experience, having organised a LOT of courses and events, is that people think of it as something 'they' (the church') are doing which "I will buy into if I feel like it (and perhaps more to the point remember about) on the day".
