It is no secret that television has become a detriment to our society. Each year in August we ask our church family to have a “No TV Week” in their home. We kick it off on a Sunday morning and run it through the next Saturday. For many weeks in advance we promote this and encourage everyone to participate.

That Sunday morning I list 20 ideas in the bulletin of various activities they can do instead of television. This has become a new positive event in our church. Church members are more apt to participate because it is done as an entire church family.

**One of our families has called it “No Screen Week” and incorporated the computer also!
