Lyndesy,

I think your idea about the text starter is spot on. It is someting we have been thinking through for a while. I’m not advocating the tech teach or apply for the child so much as prompt them and help them record what they have done.

As for the messaging, the research I am doing is similar to how schools use avatar-based programs. There is no release of information, but if two children in the same class know each other’s avatar, they know when thier friend is playing. In the same way, if two children who attend the same church know each other’s avatar, they can encourage their participation.

I can’t completely put the blame for parents treating church like a club. The insitution of the church in North America has done its part to create this culutre as well.

Thanks for the thoughts!
