Many churches are getting poorer. From the point of view of the congregation members, petrol is expensive and the economy is bad. If one plays in the church band it is seldom that the church pays the band member and petrol for going to and from practice sessions can be very expensive.
Some have resorted to virtual church sermons (for example http://www.virtualchurch.com/ ) and some listen to church services over the radio.
Churches need to add value to attract people back to church and I suggest the following:
The priest gets people to join an internet group that allows them to buy and sell articles to other church members. Congregation members can tell each other before church what they want to buy or sell and then can sell to members of their congregation before or after church when they meet on Sundays by means of boot sales, for example.
One such internet group is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/churchPE/
