Well I have finally gotten a Facebook - not that I felt that I was insignificant because I did not have one. Actually I think that it was just open to the "rest of the world" - that is people who are not students.
Anyway - WOW! Facebook is a total other dimension of life for all students, junior high through college. Some may joke that "student live, and move, and have their being in Facebook." They are on it hours everyday and it truly has become a dimension of social structure. It is fascinating to peek into this world.
I encourage you to get one and waste hours of your life every week like I have, but only for the reason of ministry. If you have a lot of students in your group to keep up with, it really is a good way to see what is going on in their lives.
