CATHOLIC ON LINE PRESENCE

On line Presence of Catholics Needed.

As it is said, we need to field ourselves in the spectrum of new ways to spread the gospel, which is the social media networks available today. Catholics should be aware of this powerful tool to reach and let the word of God be spread all over the planet and the conversion of every creature as commanded forth by our Lord Jesus Christ.

I suppose every Priests, Deacons, or leaders of the church should be involved in the online media by blogging and having their own pages and accounts which are frequented by many people today. It is is the statement of Pope Benedict XVI that every priests should be involved in the space and I think this is the time to flood the medium to press the presence of truth in the darkened cold blankness.


There is a little problem today with the habits of where the mass of users in the web goes to, it is hardly we can find that even ourselves, Catholics do not open or use media applications of our own parishes, and websites  of the church. The secular lives of our own brothers invade this supposed to be our rightful practice, and we should be aware and reckon our usage of the web leaned on the church' sites.

There is a climb today of  awareness in the presence of the church in social media and it is being done with speed as the church focuses on the enormous impact of the on line communications, we are like being enlisted by the Spirit to be there. In all local levels, it is now moving, and with acceleration as asked by Rome  .

Every individual also should be involved. Each and every Parishioners should develop the habit and practice. All of us should accept the importance of connection and being constantly present in the media networks. It is not anymore to be seen as a leisure and a habit worthless, but of worthy conduct of struggling to put the gospel upfront in the stream.

Every youngsters and students  should be taught to use the social media in spiritual etiquette and manners that they will radiate the faith and expand them. The biggest users of the space are the youth, and in them  lies the biggest part of promoting the church, that's why in all aspects our young's should be well taught  in speech, manners, and ways that reflects Catholicism.



The clergies today should be open  to these new ideas and accept that the new mission  of evangelization is in the universe of the net. Actually it should be one of the main thrust of parishes to pursue the presence of the church everywhere specially in this time and generation.

I hope that everyone will be encouraged to recognize the vastness of the new horizon and be involved in it, give their presence wielding Christ. Each one, Mothers, brothers, sisters, relatives and friends should start and not let the evils and twisters of truths will dominate, it is our responsibility to rise and be there in the cyber space.
