Churches turn to technology to spread gospel, attract members
Black churches across America, long dependent on word-of-mouth to fill their pews, are
turning to technology to reach a broader audience, energize their evangelism and attract
new members, church leaders say. Nearly 1,000 churches across the U.S. have signed up
to a web-based marketing tool to attract new members. Curtis Green, president of Find Me

laptops and Blackberries and all other sorts of tools … About time the church community
caught up with the times and marketed themselves using the latest technology."
