Dear Howard
Thank you for your encouragement and interest in digital evangelism. May I add below our latest news release, hoping you may have the option to reprint or adapt it, blog or tweet about it, share in any other appropriate way, or forward to any editors, bloggers or leaders that you know. It is also available online as a formatted Word file:
www.internetevangelismday.com/latestnews
I’ve also added a ‘resource roundup’ at the end, which can be used as part of the release, or each brief entry can become a brief stand-alone news item.
URLs in the news release include the ‘http://www’ prefix. When using in print media, it helps to remove this for clarity and shortness.
It is possible to add the latest headlines from our Digital Evangelism Issues blog to any website, using an easy-to-copy snippet of code. And if you use Facebook, you can choose to ‘follow’ the DEI blog at Networked Blogs, and then add DEI postings to different pages within your Facebook pages whenever you feel they might be appropriate. We are offering a rank-boosting back link to any site or blog that uses any of these (or other) linking options. And please feel free to use or adapt any blog posting, or item from our email Web Evangelism Bulletin, in your own blog. Sign up to receive both here:
www.internetevangelismday.com/blog
If you are a blogger, you may also find that our suggestions on how to integrate blog postings into Facebook will help you to gain readers for your own blog. Please copy or adapt these guidelines onto your blog if you wish:
www.internetevangelismday.com/dei-to-facebook.php
If your interest is mission and media, you may also be interested in the series of articles at:
www.redcliffe.org/technologyandmission
and the Guide Network resources at
www.internetevangelismday.com/guide
Please do share with me any ideas or news you have about different digital evangelism initiatives, especially examples with stories of how people are coming to faith. It is often very hard to obtain such news, yet it can be a huge bonus in advocating digital media to the wider church.
Thanks again, and blessings to you

15 years that changed the world
“The last 15 years have changed our world for ever,” claims Tony Whittaker, coordinator of Internet Evangelism Day. “Digital media are transforming the way we communicate, behave and even think. If Facebook was a country, it would have the fourth largest population in the world.”
Internet Evangelism Day is a strategic resource to help the worldwide church understand these issues and use the Web to share the good news of Jesus. It is both a year-round online guide and an annual focus day - to be held this year on Sunday 25 April.
Churches are encouraged to use Internet Evangelism Day resources to create a presentation for their members on or near that Sunday (or at any other time they choose). The IE Day site offers free downloads: PowerPoint, video clips, handouts, drama scripts, music and posters. These enable any church (or homegroup, college, or conference) to build a customized program, lasting from five minutes to fifty.
2010’s focus day will be the sixth to be used by churches around the world since the initiative’s launch in 2005. Over this period, digital media have developed dramatically with the advent of YouTube, Facebook and Twitter, plus the growing use of mobile phones to access online services.
IE Day’s website is also a one-stop resource covering many subjects including: how to build a church website that is ‘outsider friendly’, using Twitter in evangelism, and ideas for blogging.
Perhaps surprisingly, you do not need to be technical to share your faith online. And you can volunteer to be an email mentor to inquirers with several large online outreach ministries.
Internet Evangelism Day is an initiave of the Internet Evangelism Coalition, based at the Billy Graham Center, Wheaton.
It is supported by a wide range of leaders and groups. “I am glad to commend Internet Evangelism Day,” says John Stott.
