In Mission Together Uses New Media to Connect People
I sent Patrick Friday an email, suggesting
that
we meet for breakfast in the cafeteria for a
conversation about social media and mission.
Patrick suggested, instead, we should chat, pray,
and invite others to join us at a Google+ "hang
out."
A couple of emails later, Patrick and I logged on
to Google+ for our "hang out," a four-way
videoconference with Patti Bacher in De Pere,
Wisconsin, and Mi Rhang Baek in Madison,
Alabama.

Missionary Minute: Third Sunday After the Epiphany January 22, 2006
We finally have streetlights on our street!
Kaunas, with 415,000 people, is the second-
largest city in Lithuania. It shares many of the
safety concerns of other large cities. In the
winter, days are short, with sunrise at about
8:30 a.m. and sunset around 4 p.m., so
streetlights are a welcome addition.

As the United Methodist Men of Geneva United
Methodist Church began chopping green peppers,
jalapeños, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions, their
