Hello folks,
Got a pretty decent response to the Pastor’s 24 project! We are twittering everything that happens in a random non-Sunday workday of a pastor.
We were inspired by a police station that did the same thing in a 24 hour period to expose what breadth of issues they deal with. We strongly suspect that pastors deal with a similar amount of diversity. Hopefully this project is educational to outsiders and insiders alike!
So in 2 days, we’ll have the #pastors24 event. Twitter your every pastoral action on Wednesday, October 27th for 24 hours! See original article here.
Here’s the list of participants so far (names are linked to twitter accounts).
- Don Frazure
- Amanda Garvin
- Marla Marcum
- Keith McIlwain
- Melissa Meyers
- Kristen Parks
- Rob Passow
- Jenny Smith
- Jeremy Smith
- Katie Stickney
- UMConnection
- Emily (no mentioned twitter account, Emily! Let us know!)
Looks like a good group! Add your name and twitter account below and we’ll add you to tomorrow’s reminder and Wednesday’s twitterstream.
Remember:
- Wednesday, October 27th will be the pastors24 day. Post every entry under the twitter hashtag #pastors24
- Sign up below and include your twitter name, then I’ll include you in updates as a participant and link to your twitter/blog (free publicity if you participate!)
Spread the word! Thanks to everyone who spread this around!
I will do this, but have no i8dea if I am registered.. (I tried)
I was going to sign up for this, but Wednesday is my day to serve jury duty. So, I doubt this would be illuminating to anyone about ministry…and I am pretty sure I can’t livetweet the jury deliberation 🙂 I look forward to catching up on the tweets later, though!
@David, I’ve got you down! I can see your twitter account: @barryweber
@Josh, sorry man! But if you have a ministry moment before or after, let us know! Just don’t get arrested doing it!
I’m in.
I love this idea, tweeting 24 hours of a pastor’s day! I am a reader more than a tweeter, but I think I’ll give it a go.
I think I will play. I am going to try to convince my wife, who is a pastor, to play too.
@herevrush
I’m at a Spiritual Direction training (boot camp), but should still have some interesting tweets from the day. Count me in!
