E-Missions

Part One - Mail

One of the big reasons I originally got an Internet account was to be able to correspond with missionaries who had e-mail. You can encourage children do the same.

Find out which missionaries your church supports have e-mail addresses. (If you have none, check out Child Evangelism Fellowship which has both overseas and home missionaries with e-mail addresses.) Have the children each choose a missionary to message.
Be sure to suggest some things for the children to ask their missionary. (Ask about their ministry, their country, their family, etc.)

Note: You will probably have children that do not have e-mail capabilities at home. Why not invite them over to send their messages from your computer? When you get a response, print out the message for the child.
