A town that I actually know in CNY! chsocm: T1: Facebook has evolved as a social media tool. How have you used FB to build community? AmyL_Bishop: @JustinWise What is the chat about? rampracer: RT @chsocm: We're going to zoom in on Facebook & it won't be the only or last time! AmyL_Bishop: RT @chsocm: T1: Facebook has evolved as a social media tool. How have you used FB to build community? lutherangrldchz: RT @chsocm: T1: Facebook has evolved as a social media tool. How have you used FB to build community? drothamel: T1: Yes. But that depends on the definition of "community." MeredithGould: @drothamel Feel free to factor in your own definition! lutherangrldchz: We have a facebook page! That's a start right?!? I try and post upcoming events and interesting links that people might find useful JustinWise: T1: We have done some research for this at @MonkDev chsocm: @tijuanabecky On your church/organization's FB page. paulsteinbrueck: @chsocm T1: Right now our church isn't building community on its FB page. Just using it as another broadcast channel. theologybird: T1--It varies wildly depending on how FB oriented the parish is/is willing to be. Can be useful for ministry over distance, or not

tijuanabecky: A1: Asking questions and trying to relate your posts to real life has helped me build community. Bayathread: Baya Clare, Sister of St Joseph of Carondelet, St Paul, Minnesota. Greetings! RevWeb: T1 FB is parish bulletin board, phone tree, confidential messaging platform w/parishioners. Event invites bring together folks too. drothamel: T1: Our church currently has two FB presences. One is a public page, the other is a closed group. hughmacken: T1 we've posted audio of pastor's homily on wall. 1 elderly woman told me she could hear it on FB better than in Church rev_david: @chsocm Yes, our church page is more broadcasting (mostly, not entirely) and community building seems to happen on my profile JustinWise: T1: Result #2 - http://cl.ly/2B1b2L2X3m3e0x3w TrinityLimeRock: 2 FB pages: one for general parish, one for our sports program lutherangrldchz: @dothamel Do people actually use the closed group? JustinWise: T1: Result #3 - http://cl.ly/3t2P1M0G0c1J2k1q TrinityLimeRock: both tend to be broadcast channels chsocm: @JustinWise Would you provide a 140 char synopsis for each result? hughmacken: T1 we also occasionally give away a free coffee card to the first person who likes the giveaway post - for fun klamach: RT @frdavidken: T1 I use FB to make my daily prayer more "common" in a time where the church bell doesn't bring the village together chsocm: T1a Do you have one FB account or different ones for each ministry? christinaauch: RT @rev_david: RT @frdavidken: T1 I use FB to make daily prayer more "common" where church bell doesnt bring the village together rev_david: T1 - FB makes me available - through comments, through messaging, etc in ways that are otherwise not possible MeredithGould: MT @Anj1: I'm from diocese of raleigh. T1 we've had a page for 1 year & it's been a slow progression from broadcast to engagement JustinWise: T1: Result 3 - Facebook excelled at promoting events and activities. TrinityLimeRock: @anj1 how do you get progess from broadcast to engagement started?

lutherangrldchz: T1a - I have one FB account - between FB, Twitter and now G+ I don't know how someone could keep track of two accounts! MeredithGould: RT @JustinWise: T1: Result 1 - Facebook excelled at rewarding and encouraging the online community. MeredithGould: RT @JustinWise: T1: Result 2 - Growing online community itself. MeredithGould: RT @JustinWise: T1: Result 3 - Facebook excelled at promoting events and activities. RevWeb: T1-Love following youth group at St. James-Midvale UT. They use it as fundraising tool, notice board, rallying point. TrinityLimeRock: T1a - 2 FB pages (parish and sports program) penelopepiscopl: @hughmacken Just shows you, you never know. Great story. MeredithGould: @hughmacken You know the joke right: FB is the party your parents have crashed! hughmacken: RT @RevWeb: T1-Love following youth group at St. James-Midvale UT. They use it as fundraising tool, notice board, rallying point. frdavidken: Would be interested to know if anyone has advertised their church's facebook page mgoins: @JustinWise Thank you for the tweets and for directing me to the chat! I love the resources you keep pointing me towards! paulsteinbrueck: RT @MeredithGould: @hughmacken You know the joke right: FB is the party your parents have crashed! chsocm: @drothamel Feel free to factor in your own definition! rev_david: @frdavidken No, but I have thought about it ... maybe around Xmas this year drothamel: @frdavidken we advertise ours on the website, and we have advertised it on mail-drops. JustinWise: @mgoins My pleasure :) AmyL_Bishop: T1: #FB Groups help specific ministries share meeting details & continue the convo with members, esp. college/-somethings. sethhinz: To follow a conversation on church social media follow #chsocm drothamel: @frdavidken I'm actually going to teach a FB class to our membership later this month, to help people get involved. MeredithGould: IMrHO, social media badges & links should be on every piece of communication coming from the church.

TrinityLimeRock: Announced lots. Never advertised. MeredithGould: @frdavidken Oh...okay. rev_david: @frdavidken @MeredithGould Ah, That's what I thought. Not yet. Considering it. TrinityLimeRock: Too many bad visceral reactions to FB from some older parishioners chsocm: T2 is coming up and ties in nicely. Get ready! 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? AmyL_Bishop: @drothamel @frdavidken It's also important & easy to include links to all #SM channels in any email newsletters you distribute. yarby: @justinwise haha, you got me with that tantalizing #hashtag. sethhinz: Best keywords for FB targeted ads? RevWeb: FB ads: St. Thomas-Dupont Circle in DC uses FB ads. Have not heard results. chsocm: T2: How do you use different FB features (e.g., notes, video)? Or do you simply use the Wall? yarby: @drothamel I think that class is necessary. I've encouraged other churches to do the same thing that face lack of involvement. lutherangrldchz: @RevWeb is it for the church or for the FB fan page? rev_david: @lutherangrldchz Purpose of SM = building community; by generating conversation, sharing information, & making connections TotusTuus: @Anj1 Thanks. Church FB...open dialogue or do u find some challenges to moderate? Do older parishoners/non tech feel left out? rampracer: RT @chsocm: T2: How do you use different FB features (e.g., notes, video)? Or do you simply use the Wall? TrinityLimeRock: T2 - wall, photo albums, events is about it RevWeb: @lutherangrldchz @RevWeb Both. Drive folks to FB fan page. Also invite folks to church. drothamel: @yarby thanks. I'll probably do more than one. I like helping people discover what is possible with SM. JustinWise: T2: Does anyone use custom tabs? A la http://fb.me/hopewdm? AmyL_Bishop: T2: I think it's important for churches to utilize a welcome/landing tab, email signup form, discussions and video applications.

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 klamach: not sure why all members need to be on board with Facebook yarby: @sethhinz we ran 1 camp. tht targeted non-churched, tht liked pages of ppl tht needed to be reached. & 1 for ppl familiar w/ church. penelopepiscopl: Agree!!! RT @klamach: @chsocm not sure why all members need to be on board with Facebook christinaauch: @lutherangrldchz FB purpose is mixed - higher # likes/more visibility/more shares means expanding beyond members and into neighbors 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 TrinityLimeRock: klamach the ones who are not on board are loudly not on board frdavidken: @penelopepiscopl @klamach @chsocm They'll feel left out lutherangrldchz: @rev_david Agreed drothamel: @penelopepiscopl @klamach not ALL members need to be involved, but the more, the better. yarby: @justinwise yes. Custom tabs are amazing at telling ppl what their about to dive into and give them a broader understanding. lutherangrldchz: @christinaauch: Good point! TotusTuus: What I'd like to see. RT @chsocm: post what you think are great examples of FB pages for others to see. rampracer: RT @chsocm: During the week, please feel free to post what you think are great examples of FB pages for others to see. mirgray: But if U cld pick only 1? RT @ I think it's impt for the FB page, website, blog & Twitter acct to be integrated re: design & tone. penelopepiscopl: Re left out: use all tools to reach wide audience. Some don't want phone calls - doesnt mean we dont call those who do. tijuanabecky: @OurChurchDotComand @lifechurchtv 's pages are great as well as tons of others! rev_david: Tapping out to play dolls with my little one, y'all have a good night ... Parting shot -- AmyL_Bishop: I'm so happy my Tweetchat finally started working! drothamel: @rev_david Enjoy your evening!

rev_david: There is a real hunger to engage on FB -- our members are there (and many would be, to see the g'kids picture if only they knew how) chsocm: T2a Who manages the FB acct for your organization? Do you have a designated community mgr? lutherangrldchz: @MeredithGould you mean all of the webpages on a website should match?! ;) shamike2009 We use the Notes feature for announcements, Video is mainly pastor, wall for chat and prayer request. tijuanabecky: Glad you're here @AmyL_Bishop! yarby: The thing 4 churches 2 understand is Social Media is merely abt engaging, interacting, cultivating community. Extend beyond Sunday drothamel: @rev_david bingo! AmyL_Bishop: Yes. Online branding consistency is key! RT @drothamel @MeredithGould lack of cohesive purpose is a problem. Design conveys purpose rev_david: How do we, the churches & leaders, enable those who want to connect in this way? G'night! JustinWise: Here's a GREAT post by @djchuang about top church FB pages ---> http://monk.so/qPS3qH MeredithGould: @lutherangrldchz Shocking, yes. And here's another shocker: there shouldn't be bazillion fonts on every page. chsocm: @lutherangrldchz Of course! AmyL_Bishop: RT @JustinWise: Heres a GREAT post by @djchuang about top church FB pages --> http://monk.so/qPS3qH MeredithGould: RT @JustinWise: Here's a GREAT post by @djchuang about top church FB pages --> http://monk.so/qPS3qH theologybird: Me too! (Well, very nearly) RT @TrinityLimeRock: I manage everything actually I do everything lutherangrldchz: I wonder about tagging people in pictures - should we or shouldn't we? TotusTuus: BEyond SUnday, YES.RT @yarby: 4 churches 2 understand Soc Media is abt engaging, interacting, cultivating community beyond Sunday paulsteinbrueck: RT @yarby: Th thing 4 churches 2 understand is Social Media is abt engaging, interacting, cultivatng community. Extend beyond Sunday

lutherangrldchz: @drothamel Comic Sans drives me NUTS! JustinWise: #WIN // RT @drothamel: so many church websites look like Geocities and Comic Sans had a baby. It’s sad. AmyL_Bishop: Ha :) RT @drothamel: @MeredithGould @lutherangrldchz so many church websites look like Geocities & Comic Sans had a baby. It’s sad. penelopepiscopl: @MeredithGould @drothamel Hey, I like comic sans. Use it for my sermons. Easy to read. christinaauch: @chsocm T2a We have 2 mgrs for page "in case one gets hit by a bus"; a different one for the closed group b/c affinity tijuanabecky: RT @yarby: Th thing 4 churches 2 understand is Social Media is abt engaging, interacting, cultivatng community. Extend beyond Sunday Anj1: @lutherangrldchz I think not, because people can tag themselves if they want to. I don't like to be tagged in unflattering pics! TrinityLimeRock: Have media releaese; still don't tag kids lutherangrldchz: @theologybird What do you suggest? I have tagged the minors parents before and we always have a media release theologybird: RT @TrinityLimeRock: Have media release; still dont tag kids yarby: RT @justinwise: #WIN // RT @drothamel: so many church websites look like Geocities and Comic Sans had a baby. It’s sad. chsocm: During the week, please feel free to post what you think are great examples of FB pages for others to see. jeanalawrence: what's the topic? drothamel: @penelopepiscopl perhaps @MeredithGould can conduct a typography intervention/exorcism. ;-) JustinWise: @jeanalawrence Yeah! Glad you're here.... chsocm: The tagging issue raises another subtopic: T2b: What sorts of privacy settings do you recommend? penelopepiscopl: RT @drothamel: @penelopepiscopl perhaps @MeredithGould can conduct a typography intervention/exorcism-->y'all aren't the boss of me. MeredithGould: @penelopepiscopl I'm telling God on you! theologybird: My profile: High, Church's page: open with disclaimers

11

JustinWise: We did a webinar on the topic of social media privacy settings for ministers/pastors ---> http://justinwise.net/webinars yarby: at a recent church I worked w/ there was a Comm Mgr & wrkd w/ them to implement a VOL team to act as contact b/w depts. tijuanabecky: How do you get started with getting ppl to engage and interact on your page? penelopepiscopl: @MeredithGould God, creator of everything that is, seen and unseen, and called it good LIKES comic sans. jeanalawrence: @tijuanabecky ah, thanks MeredithGould: @penelopepiscopl LOLOL...and tiaras! AmyL_Bishop: T3: What kind of privacy are we talking about? Personal profiles, pages, groups? Anj1: @tijuanabecky I've found people like polls! MeredithGould: RT @Anj1: @tijuanabecky I've found people like polls! drothamel: @Anj1 what kind of topics do you use for the polls? RevWeb: @JustinWise My last count was 3 different URLs in response to different topics. Tell us. Don't just drive us. JustinWise: @Anj1 @tijuanabecky Polls are the joint. Posts that have "Where" "When" "Would" or "Should" garner % more interaction. drothamel: @RevWeb later, @JustinWise put each of the slides in text form in tweets. lutherangrldchz: RT @jeanalawrence: Before you build a community, you and church leadership need to write down the goals for the community christinaauch: RT @justinwise: @Anj1 @tijuanabecky Posts that have "Where" "When" "Would" or "Should" garner % more interaction. yarby: @jeanalawrence totally agree. Step 1 to developing strategy. jeanalawrence: @tijuanabecky you've got to have something worth talking about chsocm: Let the convo continue but get ready to weave topic 3 into it... RevWeb: T?-FB, twitter, blogs, youTube, enewsletters all must be part of larger plan which shud be part of strategic plan/mission/vision. TrinityLimeRock: ...so we just do it. Bad, right? jeanalawrence: @yarby yes, don't build it without clear goals and a strategy penelopepiscopl: @TrinityLimeRock No, not bad.

chsocm: T3 What’s your best advice for a church/org just getting started w/FB? AmyL_Bishop: What kind of privacy are we addressing? Personally I'm on the side of being open and transparent for all to see. JustinWise: @tijuanabecky The survey was for Facebook updates in general. No specification on what type. drothamel: T3: Have fun with it. MeredithGould: RT @penelopepiscopl: T3 Watch what others do and learn from them. rev_david: T3 - Find someone who is doing it well, and ask them to walk you through it. prkanderson: You've got to find your community on FB first. Find your members, community leaders.... penelopepiscopl: Agreed! RT @theologybird: @TrinityLimeRock Sometimes you just jump. yarby: know your intentions, if you're just getting started. MeredithGould: RT @yarby: know your intentions, if you're just getting started. drothamel: @JustinWise @AmyL_Bishop even beyond transparent, just be genuine. lutherangrldchz: RT @rev_david: T3 - Ask lots and lots of questions. Amen! chsocm: And the fire hose is now open! penelopepiscopl: Definitely. If it's not fun, you'll run out of steam and maybe not get much response either. RT @drothamel: T3: Have fun with it. prkanderson: T3 Listen first. See how people interact and engage and try to match it. jeanalawrence: @TrinityLimeRock even a little church needs a plan - doesn't have to be very detailed paulsteinbrueck: @chsocm T3: Have clear goals & recruit a team/core committed to achieving them. TrinityLimeRock: You either feel it or you don't, IMHO. Don't study it to death christinaauch: @chsocm T3 Have a person who wants to manage it; have images, icon & name; promote it/ be visible; know how to use the key JustinWise: We're all about to get schooled. @prkanderson is in the house!

13

MeredithGould: T3 Remember that you're engaged in *ministry* & that everything you do must reflect Gospel values & Christ's love yarby: be intentional w/ attracting your community, developng your approach & content if you're just getting started. AmyL_Bishop: RT @paulsteinbrueck: T3: Have clear goals & recruit a team/core committed to achieving them. theologybird: @christinaauch "know how to use the key" lol! Yes! penelopepiscopl: Yeah, I tend to be in this camp. RT @TrinityLimeRock: You either feel it or you dont, IMHO. Dont study it to death MeredithGould: RT @drothamel: @christinaauch On the 8th, or thereabouts, God created the key. prkanderson: T3. Pick the three things you want me to associate with your congregation. Focus on those things. JustinWise: T3: As important to having goals is knowing how to MEASURE them. I'm amazed at how many churches aren't measuring results. AmyL_Bishop: RT @prkanderson: T3. Pick the three things you want me to associate with your congregation. Focus on those things. jeanalawrence: Unless you have someone (volunteer or staff) that can lead your social media efforts, don't do it. MeredithGould: RT @TrinityLimeRock: try it. if it doesn't work, try something else. TrinityLimeRock: stay on mission prkanderson: @jeanalawrence But people in the church could be active on FB and you could help connect them - a more informal presence JustinWise: Boom. // RT @jeanalawrence: Unless you have someone (volunteer or staff) that can lead your social media efforts, don’t do it. christinaauch: @drothamel so now God loves comic sans AND created the key - creatio continua! penelopepiscopl: @JustinWise I don't really get "measuring." I don't measure relationships. MeredithGould: RT @prkanderson: @jeanalawrence But ppl in the church could be active on FB & you could help connect them - more informal presence AmyL_Bishop: And stay on brand. Your visual identity (logo, colors, etc) should be consistent across the web. RT @TrinityLimeRock stay on mission

14

drothamel: @christinaauch After creating Comic Sans, God was forced to create the key. :-D JustinWise: @penelopepiscopl No, but you measure the by-products of those relationships. chsocm: We're coming up on the hour, friends. lutherangrldchz: RT @drothamel: @christinaauch After creating Comic Sans, God was forced to create the key. :-D// haha love it!! JustinWise: @penelopepiscopl Do you track attendance in your church? penelopepiscopl: I'm tweeting in Comic Sans next week if I can figure out how. yarby: RT @justinwise: T3: As important to having goals is knowing how to MEASURE thm. Im amazed @ how many churches arent measurin results MeredithGould: RT @prkanderson: Measuring is definitely a fine line in ministry. Some stats are helpful, some not. TrinityLimeRock: Sure! And on the web too. BTW do you folks know that you all have high Klout scores? sethhinz: "@prkanderson: T3. Pick the three things you want me to associate with your congregation. Focus on those things. " // nailed it. jeanalawrence: @prkanderson of you are that "informal" presence, just know that you're the leader :) people don't distinguish between in/formal JustinWise: @prkanderson Money/donor dollars is only one very small metric we can track. jeanalawrence: @christinaauch @drothamel God also loves Papyrus ;) AmyL_Bishop: @lutherangrldchz @penelopepiscopl @JustinWise Churches using Facebook should only do so if they have a strategic measurable plan. JustinWise: @jeanalawrence @christinaauch @drothamel Jesus hates Papyrus: http://jesushatespapyrus.com/ AmyL_Bishop: @prkanderson @JustinWise @penelopepiscopl I think the most important measurement is engagement! tijuanabecky: We do? RT @trinitylimerock: Sure! And on the web too. BTW do you folks know that you all have high Klout scores? reckshow: I really need to remember the chat on Tuesdays! *putting it in the calendar* theologybird: As long as we all remember that God's favorite font is Verdana... jeanalawrence: @prkanderson @justinwise @penelopepiscopl there are some very good ways to measure without monetizing - another topic?

15

prkanderson: @AmyL_Bishop @JustinWise @penelopepiscopl Is that the number of comments, likes, RTs, etc.? Or one-to-one contact? christinaauch: RT @penelopepiscopl: ...ministry is creating things that we can't even see. Gospel is not measured, its lived. tijuanabecky: I like that font! RT @theologybird: As long as we all remember that God's favorite font is Verdana... drothamel: @JustinWise that's awesome. Jesus and typography/design on one site? Love it. theologybird: @tijuanabecky It's the best! jeanalawrence: @JustinWise @christinaauch @drothamel LOL, my sentiments exactly chsocm: And we're at the hour! JustinWise: In case you're interested, here are ways to measure social media efforts in your church --> http://jwi.se/mRq7HQ drothamel: Wherever two or more are gathered in His name, He's there, too; even if they are all behind a keyboard. ;-) chsocm: We'll return to the metrics issue in another chat. For sure, it's an ongoing conversation currently hot among social media experts. jeanalawrence: Keep it simple. Assign a leader. Set measurable goals. Engage within your brand. Change the world. chsocm: Borrowing this prayer from @Virtual_Abbey, which just finished praying Compline: mirgray: Some of discussion seems big church oriented. Might be good to include membership stat in intros so we know each other's context. chsocm: O God of Peace, may we fall asleep at length and peacefully wake up in your likeness for your tender mercies sake. Amen. paulsteinbrueck: Social media metrics & ROI would be a great chat topic! prkanderson: RT @chsocm: O God of Peace, may we fall asleep at length and peacefully wake up in your likeness for your tender mercies sake. Amen. chsocm: The night heralds the dawn. Let us look expectantly to a new day, new joys, and new possibilities. jeanalawrence: @prkanderson Lots of ways to measure ROI for churches in social media. Let's chat sometime. chsocm: The divine Spirit dwells in us. Thanks be to God!
