  • Digital Evangelism: New Ministry Launch

DioSWVA's new Digital Mission Team (DMT) is launching a diocesan-wide digital evangelism effort this summer. Distinct from the Diocesan Tech Team, which is focused on live-streaming and audio/video ministries, the DMT will resource parish efforts geared toward creating, updating, and advancing social media and websites. The DMT will offer initial consultations via Zoom starting this month. Please email Mary Alice Mouk to request a consultation.

*Invite, Welcome, Connect

Have you been interested in learning more about Invite Welcome Connect (IWC), an evangelism resource supported by Sewanee and used widely in parishes across our country? The IWC website is full of useful resources and videos if you want to do a little research on your own! If you have additional questions, please contact Canon Jenni Faires.

*The next virtual service will be recorded on Thursday, June 24th, at 11 am at All Saints.
