Chances are if you spend time online, you have a Facebook account. If you don’t know what Facebook is, then get your head around these stats:
- More than 70 million users use Facebook
- Facebook is the 6th most trafficked website in the world
- Number one photo sharing application online
- 14 million photo’s uploaded each day
- More than 2 million people are on Facebook at any given time
Facebook is a social networking site where users have the opportunity to connect to people they know and share whatever they like. Sounds like the online world loves Facebook. So the question beckons, where do we need to be as a Church to reach this world?
Apart from manning our pews on the weekends, we need to be where the people are. And Facebook is one of those places.
