Welcome!
The Computer Ministry was started over twenty years ago to provide digital support and computer literacy to children, church members, ministries, and the community. The computer lab has been used in various types of training over the years. It was most recently used for hands-on literacy training projects for children on the third Sunday of each month.
A recent key partnership of the ministry was the Tech Goes Home Project which provided 15 hours of computer training to registered students, who then developed and presented individual projects using tools and devices from the class. Upon completion, students received a Chromebook for a nominal fee. This project was important because it helped to bridge the digital divide among seniors "Baby Boomers” and the underserved communities. This partnership was instrumental in helping the community to connect virtually for worship services, school, medical appointments, shopping, etc. We look forward to resuming this partnership and others when opportunities arise.
