Topic is spreading good news during Digital Age
MARYKNOLL, N.Y. — Innovative ideas that help spread God’s word in the digital age is the theme of the 2010 Maryknoll Student Essay Contest, the 22nd annual middle school and high school competition from Maryknoll magazine. This year’s assignment, iMission, asks students to describe how young people continue to spread the Good News of the Lord throughout a world increasingly dominated by and dependent on instant messaging and online social networking.
For 100 years, Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers have been following Jesus’ command to “go out to the whole world and spread the Good News.” While ever-changing technology now provides unique, easy and instantaneous communications opportunities from almost anywhere, Maryknoll is asking teenagers and pre-teens to share the many ways that they share Jesus’ message with others.
