  Things to Do - Sunday  
 

One of the most frequent questions we get is, "How can I participate in Black Family Technology Awareness Week?"

The quick answer is that only your imagination and resources limit you. Almost any activity that promotes technology is appropriate. To get you started, here are just a few ideas.

High Tech Sunday
Contact your church and ask your leaders to distribute a national survey to help us determine how informed we are as a community about computers and technology. And, host a dialogue about technology awareness with the congregation after the service.
