Twitter would be just one source for a useful stream. You could add a photo stream of events using Flickr or similar service, upcoming.com for schedules of future bible studies, recommended books to read using Goodreads.com, Delicious.com to link to relevant websites. And those are just some quick ideas. If proper thought is put into the types of content and streams to push, businesses or any other sector (including ministries) could benefit from Lifestreaming.

And then we can port the info over to something like Lifestream. If God gets into this, we will have places to go to tell us what our life will be like tomorrow.

I think it can be done effectively if you're an organization. I started a twitter for my church (@oslc). I'm meeting with our communications department later this week to discuss what kind of content we're going to be giving it. We will likely feed the same information that we put into our "weekly connections" (newsletter) through @oslc. It can be used effectively as a form of communication in that regard. While an organization doesn't have the same type of day-to-day experiences as a human... it still has things going on. Twitter can be useful for getting general information out for a church... IMO. Just look at @newspring. They don't update it constantly... but you sure see a lot of updates come Sunday. In regards to Twitter… I think it can be done effectively if you're an organization.
