9:18 | 1) yes, it's a must 2) yes he does 3) no..this is an easy place to start. But some are still afraid of smart phones. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:18 JealaineMarple |
9:19 | I use a smart phone, and most of our members do too. But our senior pastor has no cell phone at all. It's part of his charm. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:19 azrork |

9:20 | @MeredithGould I would never do that. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:20 RevWeb |
9:20 | T1 How are smartphones changing the way you minister to others? #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:20 chsocm |

9:21 | Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:21 LuckyCharm333 |
9:21 | The biggest change (for better or worse) is that I am available in some form (email, SM) 24/7 #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:21 JealaineMarple |

9:22 | T1 we can text our congregants. Our YM texts her youth group kids. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:22 MicheleLKoch |
9:22 | T1: We use YouVersion Live on Sundays and encourage people to "boot up their Bibles" during worship. #ChSocM Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:22 mlstarner |
9:22 | <-- not sure I actually "minister" to ppl... #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:22 LuckyCharm333 |

9:23 | Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:23 TrinityLimeRock |
9:23 | 1) Senior yes 2) associate (me) yes 3) not a dumb question. learning to connect with people in FB and Twitter #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:23 StevenPThomason |
9:23 | T1. I know longer carry pen and paper, I just use the Notepad app on my phone to keep up with important App.!! #ChSoCm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:23 B_RockW |
9:23 | T1 Assuming, maybe mistakenly, local tweeple/FB friends folo on fones. Maybe not. No luck organizing tailgate church on SM. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:23 RevWeb |
9:23 | T1: We did a daily devotional for a month and sent out daily text reminders to those who signed up for them. #ChSocM Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:23 mlstarner |

9:24 | T1a is a wee bit different: #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:24 chsocm |
9:24 | T1: Also means I don't have to carry around my laptop when I leave for the day 'cause I can email, twitter, etc. from smartphone #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:24 PresbyEmily |
9:24 | Neat idea.RT @mlstarner: T1: We did a daily devotional for a month & sent out daily text reminders to those who signed up for them. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:24 MicheleLKoch |
9:24 | T1a How could smartphones be used best, most effectively? #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:24 chsocm |

9:26 | T1a I'm all ears! #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:26 TrinityLimeRock |
9:26 | T1a Smartphone is most effective for me with the right apps that optimize task management #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:26 rampracer |
9:26 | T1a Could replace traditional phone trees/prayer chains, I suppose. Also for hot announcements. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:26 LuckyCharm333 |
9:27 | #chsocm We have used our iPhones to live Tweet our @StJohnsEpisGH Sunday forum Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:27 StorkBrian |

9:31 | @MicheleLKoch As in "responsive design" commonly defined? #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:31 chsocm |

9:35 | T2a lack of local telecom infrastructure here in rural Connecticut #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:35 TrinityLimeRock |
9:35 | @revrevwine Ours isn't self-hosted. Congregation thinks web/SM is "wasteful," also fearful of drawing new members. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:35 LuckyCharm333 |
9:35 | Wow, really helpful & interesting responses to T2a. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:35 chsocm |
9:35 | @MicheleLKoch wireframe with which cms? #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:35 bfelice |
9:36 | @MCMBrooks I guess fine is fine with me. I don't place a high value on mobile optimization & "responsive design" #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:36 paulsteinbrueck |
9:36 | T2a money. It's cheaper when done at same time site is being revamped. #chsocm Tuesday October 23, 2012 9:36 MicheleLKoch |
