Introduction Message
Dear Pastor Kaitroy,
Greetings from Martin Wolske’s LIS451 class! We’re the five students who will be working with you to set up Morningstar’s computer lab.
We’re sorry to have missed meeting you and seeing the church during the last ESLARP trip, but hopefully we will be able to get a lot done communicating with you via phone and email before the next trip on November 14 – 15. Our hope is that on the 14th we will be able to set up the computers for the lab and get a few different versions of Linux running on them so that your church and community members might try them out on the 15th and see what version they find works best for their needs. We will then install the Linux terminal server and the rest of the software for the lab when we return during the final trip in December.
If you have any thoughts, questions, or concerns as we head into this project, please let us know. For your convenience, we have attached our email addresses at the bottom of this letter. It would be helpful for us if you could give a sense of what the user community is like at Morningstar and what they will likely be using the computers for, as well as a description and/or pictures of the physical space where the lab will finally be located. We would also love to know more about Morningstar Baptist Church – its history, mission, congregation, and vision, particularly for the computer lab.
We look forward to working with you on this project!
