Beyond the Weekly Bulletin: Keys to Effective Church Communications
There was a time when all a church needed to do was print a weekly bulletin to communicate with church members. And when it came to reaching out to the community, sending out a postcard was enough. That’s not the case anymore. We’ll discuss a multi-media approach to communicating with members and your surrounding community. Plus we’ll look at overall strategies for successful communications.
Bible Correspondence Courses in Africa and Haiti
BTGMI French ministry uses Bible correspondence course materials very effectively. But given the unreliable mailing system in many countries, most students walk to our discipleship centers in Congo, Central African Republic, Benin and Haiti to pick up and drop off their Bible correspondence lessons. This presentation will share stories of how God is changing lives in these countries through Bible correspondence courses.

Does Your Church Have a Brand?
