1 Sep 2010: College classes are starting up all across the country. Will you join us in praying for wisdom for the many professors who are desiring to share their heart for Christ and for missions with the students in their classrooms?

30 Aug 2010: LightSys' Monday Prayer Meeting tonight at 9pm EDT / 6pm PDT. How can we be praying for *you*?

26 Aug 2010: Tomorrow morning (Friday), Tim and Patricia will start off on their next trip "to the West Coast." It will take them to Portland and Seattle, Los Angeles, Arizona, Colorado, Toronto, and Delaware (among other places). Ok. So "West" is relative. They will be back sometime in February.

The Big Picture...

ICCM Conference Photo As LightSys, we are called to a small, but nevertheless crucial, part in God's work around the world. As such, we are not alone, but are a part of a larger community of Christian technologists within the body of Christ. There are also many other ministries today which are actively seeking God's will and serving in His kingdom by using their technological gifts.

Although it is important to us to share with you our heart, our vision, and our ministry, this website would be incomplete if we didn't share with you the bigger picture of God's work - to Him be the glory! As the theme song for ICCM 2005 proclaimed (from Psalm 115), "Not to us, but to Your name, be the glory!".


Community Places...

ICCM Logo Probably the most significant Community Place in missions IT work is the annual International Conference on Computing and Mission. At this conference, between 100 and 200 IT professionals and missionaries gather for worship, prayer, encouragement, sharing, and learning. Some significant community projects and collaborative efforts have risen from ICCM and the ICCM community. ICCM also has several mailing lists (currently on Yahoo Groups) which are active throughout the year.

Other significant Community Places in our work include ICTA's Place of Koinonia, Crosscape's knowledge base wiki, the Christian Open Development Network (CODN), and MissionaryTechSupport.com's support forums. Some links are provided below. Please feel free to join in on these communities! We're a community of a common heart and vision.

Working Together...

Partnerships As members of one body, we all share a common mission. It makes a lot of sense for us to work together. There are a number of projects and efforts underway to help that to happen. We've listed some of them below.

Probably one of the most significant efforts is Sideros which involves several key ministries including LightSys, MissionaryTechSupport.com, Crosscape, and ICTA.
