North America Gives “eChurch” Award for Local Church Web Sites

The Emmanuel Brinklow Adventist Church in Ashton, Maryland, was presented with the “eChurch” Award Jan. 24 for “Outstanding Web site of the Year” for Seventh-day Adventist churches in North America in 2003 (http://www.emmanuelbrinklow.org/). Don Wood, Emmanuel Brinklow webmaster, and his wife design Web sites professionally. Although they receive no pay for the work, they give the church’s Web site as much time as any other site. Beginning Jan. 1, 2003, in an effort to encourage Web excellence among North American Seventh-day Adventist churches, the office of communication for the church in North America, PlusLine and TAGnet recognized 12 churches with outstanding Web sites.
