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.

• What is a Capstone Project?
• Explain the three phases of the capstone project.
• Review the rubric with participants.
• Brainstorm projects that could be created 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, an opportunity to apply what you have
learned from many different areas, and culminate
to make a final project that shows off how you are
integrating technology in your ministry. It is meant
to be your “crowning achievement, point, element,
or event” and “the final stroke; the culmination or
acme.”
