Ladies and gentlemen of the SteemChurch...

'Peace be with you'

Platforms for growth - an expanding foundation!

The SteemChurch is thriving!

Acts 16:5

Each and every day the SteemChurch grows. Grows in faith, grows in vision, grows in numbers.

SteemChurch is spreading the word of God, love, self reliance and independence. More so, it is spreading a message to the masses. That message is FREEDOM.

Freedom from oppression and slavery - whether bondage, or financial, or otherwise.

Freedom to choose! Freedom to acquire and build! Freedom to trade!

Our platform to launch our crusade - non other than the Steem blockchain. The greatest blockchain on the planet (at the moment).

Our origin on Steem.

The Steem blockchain has given birth to SteemChurch, a decentralised online community for Chirstians worldwide; and, the fastest growing community on Steemit.

The Steem blockchain is also growing rapidly...

... having hit 1,000,000 Steem accounts during the past week.

To speed up the onboarding of new members the Steemit Applications Team is now providing 3 new 'pay to sign-up' options - detailed below. You can either wait - or you can pay to join. And people will definitely pay to fast-track the queue.

The details of the new onboarding options can be found here.

Steem founder @ned has been in South Korea promoting the Steem blockchain too. There are now over 350 applications leveraging off Steem. See his presentation here.

These are all good signs for the future of the Steem blockchain and for the growth of our Church.

Then of course there are our recent projects - gaining much attention and facilitating much interest in our Church. I would like to thank @isaacfem for this highly creative project footer.

And let us not forget our amazing new website thanks to @marcelo182

Steem will always be our home.

To date Steem has served us well and will continue to do so in the future.

However, we need to be aware of other platforms onto which we can expand our presence and our mission.

EOS

EOS will potentially launch its own social media platform. With all the funds that Blockone has - they might reward communities like ours well for expanding onto their platform.

alt

This Knight has already made preparations for the Church to seize any such EOS opportunity which might arise.

But again, this EOS platform will be another blogging platform. We have already made huge leaps forward for Christianity on the blogger-sphere. So where to next?

Well where to indeed!

SteemChurch in Virtual Reality.

In discussing success, world famous Ice Hockey player Wayne Gretzky said:

'A good hockey player plays where the puck is. A great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be.'

In applying a similar 'strategy for success' for the SteemChurch, we cannot simply 'be where our parishioners are', we must go where our parishioners are going to be. And where is this?

Virtual Reality Gaming.

The advent of the blockchain was the first step towards a virtual reality - and a whole new world! A whole new world which, will require Christian morals and ethics in order to thrive as a working ecosystem; for the benefit of all mankind.

For many months now this Knight has been on the lookout for a blockchain which could prove a foundation for virtual reality worlds.

This Knight believes he has found it.

CHIMAERA

Imagine if you will - a virtual SteemChurch Cathedral. Beautiful and splendid like the cathedrals of old - a grand tribute to our heavenly father and his son Jesus Christ. The first ever cathedral to be built upon blockchain.

Rest assured, SirKnight is watching this space closely, ready to expand our foundations; and our love.
