More congregations turn to Facebook, Web, high-tech outreach

No matter where you live, you can go to church, so to speak, with Christ Fellowship.

The McKinney, Texas, congregation is on board with almost every high-tech gambit under heaven. Find the church by going online — the 21st-century version of sighting a steeple on the horizon. Beyond their website, Christ Fellowship has a Facebook page to give it a friendly presence in social media. You can download the worship program by scanning their customized-with-a-cross QR code. The worship services are streamed online from their Internet campus — with live chat running so you can share spiritual insights in real time. Afterward, says senior Pastor Bruce Miller, "someone will ask you, 'How did it go? Did God help you, today? How can we help you?' Just like we do when people come to our building in McKinney. We are here to help people find and follow Christ, wherever they are starting out from." And wherever they are in the digital world.
