Good communication supports the life and ministry of a congregation. Our Communications Resources page brings together practical tools to help parishes strengthen their websites, newsletters, social media, print materials, and other forms of outreach. You’ll find website assistance for congregations using Digital Faith, printable forms and certificates, newsletter and social-media tools, design and video resources, nonprofit technology discounts, online directory options, and articles on topics such as branding, photography, email marketing, websites, and social media.
Clear and consistent communication helps congregations tell their story, welcome newcomers, and represent their ministries well. This collection of guidelines includes resources for developing a parish communications plan, strengthening visual identity and branding, improving church marketing, and establishing standards for websites, newsletters, signage, publications, photographs, advertising, and other communications. The page also includes guidance related to copyright and appropriate use of content in church communications.
You do not have to navigate church communications alone. Whether your congregation needs help with a website, social media, communications planning, or simply figuring out where to begin, diocesan communications support is available. The page also connects congregations with additional organizations and professional resources offering training, tools, networking, and ideas for effective church communication.
