As we look back over the past several weeks, you are
invited to share three things you are grateful for.
Please type these in the Chat Window.

God of all blessings,
source of all life,
giver of all grace:
We thank you for the mystery of creation,
for the beauty that the eye can see,
for the joy that the ear may hear,
for the unknown
that we cannot behold, filling the universe with wonder;
for the expanse of space
that draws us beyond the definitions of our selves.
For these, and all blessings,
we give you thanks, eternal, loving God,
through Jesus Christ we pray.
Amen. Read more: http://www.beliefnet.com/Prayers/Christian/Gratitude/Prayer-Of-

• What is a Capstone Project?
• Explain the three phases of the capstone project.
• Review the rubric with participants.
• Brainstorm projects for a parish, school, or adult setting.
• Identify relevant research about technology and
learning, especially as applied to faith settings.

As found on Wikipedia, a capstone is literally, “one of
the finishing or protective stones that form the top of
an exterior masonry wall or building.”

For DDBC… it’s an opportunity
• to apply what you have learned (from many different areas)
• to create a final project that shows how you are
integrating technology in your ministry
It will be…
• your “crowning achievement, point, element, or
event.”
• “the final stroke; the culmination or acme”
