"Reach Out and Touch Some-body's Hand, Make This World a Better Place"....Yes, We Can !
@ Christ Lutheran Church in Valparaiso, IN the Ladies Summer Bible Study has a participant from Singapore, Asia via SKYPE !
Seems like just a few weeks ago, I blogged about a new Ladies Bible Study starting up here in Valparaiso, IN at my church. If you live around here, you'll know the one, with all big construction trucks and new building going on at the Corner of Campbell St. & Vale Park Road.
On the 1st night of this study, one of the ladies mentioned that she had a friend overseas who may like to join in. Since they already communicate via SKYPE,and our Church has wireless internet access, the technology was in place to, as the song says.....reach out!
We extended her an invitation to join us via Laptop with built in video camera and last night that invite was graciously accepted.
It Was AWESOME ! ...but then, so is our GOD :)
Connections like this that foster fellowship around the globe are priceless!
Just look at the ->Google Mapof how far apart these 2 cities are!
Luckily, the time zone differences meshed for this particular study. As the evening sun faded here in Valpo, we discussed the lessons to be learned from the story of Lot's Wife, with a sister who saw morning sunlight in Singapore. We all laughed, as we discovered the similarities in weather. It was 90 and humid in Asia and we've had a hot few days of summer lately in NW Indiana as well!
What a blessing to be able to come together and study The Word no matter how many miles separate us....
Can I hear an Amen ? !
The world is getting smaller, thanks to technology and social media! I pray those reading will be inspired to reach out and connect to others around the globe using these new means to share the Message...yes you can!
Enjoy the song & video ->

What a great use of SKYPE! I kept in touch with my daughter while she was in Germany through SKYPE but never considered its use during a bible study.
Isn't it awesome Irene - it works great too! hopefully many church groups will take advantage of SKYPE for thier programs of study. thanks for stopping by - appreciate it.

Grace

Isn't is awesome Naoma! We plan to use it for business and we just opened a Brokerage Office on the concept of Mobile/work from home agents - so meetings and conference calls w/ skype and google wave (when it comes out) will be key for Us!

Hi all. The trick is to make sure you don't die waiting for prosperity to come. Help me! It has to find sites on the: Free bad credit personal loans. I found only this - fast personal Loans. There are many different types of personal loans which can be used for almost any purpose you can think of. Personal loans for debt consolidation, student loans, home improvements, or any purpose personal loan packages are tailored to the specific needs of. With love :-(, Merle from Namibia.
