Is Your Church Social? Part 9: Facebook – Give Your Church A "Face" LiftHere's a free service that gets it done:  Grou.ps and if you can deal with ads:  KickApps (you can pay for an ad free version) Or for a small fee, Ning is always a good option.

Create your own 'social network'

Create your own 'social network' for your church members, ministry, or youth group. WHAT?  Why have your own network and not use Facebook or MySpace –after all lot's of folks are already on those networks? It is a matter of connecting to your own group in a special way that doesn't include a whole lot of other stuff that divert attention away from the church or group members getting to know one another better and actually sharing with one another. Also you can feature church or group activities and keep everyone informed on stuff that coming up soon.
