This coin is buried somewhere around the 500 rank.  Most people who are going to Prestonwood, Stonebrier or much smaller churches have no idea about this coin and its mandate.  They aren't spending their evenings scanning coinmarketcap looking for a charity coin.

Do you have any marketing ideas?

An acquaintance posted about BiblePay on a few Christian Facebook groups but they werent interested.

Even a lot of really smart people (even a lot I know personally) think Cryptocurrencies are a ponzi scheme still.

I really like this coin because its max supply is 5 billion by 2050, so there is still a lot of time for people to get into it.

We need a good way to educate people about Cryptocurrencies. It will happen in time on its own, but will take time...

We are the 1st users, the testers, the techies, we are the early adopters.

7 Stats That Highlight A Millennial Propensity For Bitcoin

Yes!
Go directly to churches with a booklet that is a starter guide.  The Dallas area is a good place to start.  I posted on reddit about how Mint.com users in the McKinney, TX area are the most charitable of all Mint users.

So we should start with the creation of a guide booklet that can lay out guidelines about what it is, and help to onload people into biblepay, explain good security and backup practices, help them understand how running the wallet helps orphans, and distribute that to churches.  This is first and foremost a charity.  I don't think Christians are early adopters in cryptocurrencies: many of the coins out there are for anything but charity.
