9:24	TrinityLimeRock:  Too many bad visceral reactions to FB from some older parishioners #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:24 TrinityLimeRock

9:25	lutherangrldchz:  Is the purpose to gain 1,000 fans on FB or to mainly have church members know what is happening in the life of the parish? #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:25 lutherangrldchz

9:25	AmyL_Bishop:  @drothamel @frdavidken It's also important & easy to include links to all #SM channels in any email newsletters you distribute. #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:25 AmyL_Bishop

9:26	yarby:  @drothamel I think that class is necessary. I've encouraged other churches to do the same thing that face lack of involvement. #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:26 yarby

9:26	lutherangrldchz:  @RevWeb is it for the church or for the FB fan page? #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:26 lutherangrldchz

9:26	rev_david:  @lutherangrldchz Purpose of SM = building community; by generating conversation, sharing information, & making connections #ChSocM [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:26 rev_david

9:26	TotusTuus:  @Anj121 Thanks. Church FB...open dialogue or do u find some challenges to moderate? Do older parishoners/non tech feel left out? #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:26 TotusTuus

9:27	rampracer:  RT @chsocm: T2: How do you use different FB features (e.g., notes, video)? Or do you simply use the Wall? #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:27 rampracer

9:27	TrinityLimeRock:  T2 - wall, photo albums, events is about it #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:27 TrinityLimeRock

9:27	RevWeb:  @lutherangrldchz @RevWeb Both. Drive folks to FB fan page. Also invite folks to church. #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:27 RevWeb

9:28	lutherangrldchz:  @rev_david I agree, I don't see why someone would buy a FB ad just to gain fb fans? But I suppose someone in their community could C #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:28 lutherangrldchz

9:29	klamach:  @chsocm not sure why all members need to be on board with Facebook #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:29 klamach

9:29	christinaauch:  @lutherangrldchz FB purpose is mixed - higher # likes/more visibility/more shares means expanding beyond members and into neighbors #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:29 christinaauch

9:29	rev_david:  @lutherangrldchz It's not about the #s, It's about connecting the page w/ new ppl (in & out of the congregation) & raising awareness #ChSocM [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:29 rev_david

9:29	TrinityLimeRock:  klamach the ones who are not on board are loudly not on board #chsocm [via Twitter] Tuesday August 9, 2011 9:29 TrinityLimeRock
