CASE STUDY BOOKLET
This booklet is FREE for ECC Members along with the many other ebooks and templates  available to them.

This booklet not only goes along with the video on recruiting volunteers, but it is also an extremely useful guide for any time of the year when you need advice on how to successfully recruit volunteers.

Yes, it would be wonderful if people just showed up whenever we announce we need them, but real life in real churches doesn't work out that way.

To get more volunteers churches sometimes think they need to attend conferences, read huge books, follow complex plans and while some of these things can be useful, try a far more simple and extremely effective solution: tell people what is going on, what you want them to do, and how to get in touch with you so you know they want to be part of it.

That sounds so easy, but I cannot tell you how many "volunteer" announcements, flyers and brochures I see that don't do this. This book walks you through step-by-step the kind of information you need to include for truly successful volunteer recruitment. It is available in three ways:

For Effective Church Communication Members it is is a free download. If you are not a member, check out becoming one so you can receive this and many other resources like it for free 24/7.

Back-to-School Backpack Ministry, church communication resources to motivate your congregation

By 3 Comments

Back-to-School  is a time with great outreach potential. Backpack Ministry, where your church assembles and gives children backpacks filled with school supplies, now more than ever, is a greatly needed ministry. Children in homeless shelters, kids whose parents have lost their jobs, or whose jobs have been cut back, many of them face a sad and embarrassing time—to be forced to go to school without the required supplies their parents can't pay for and the schools don't provide.

To keep that from happening to any little child in your community, below are PDFs of bulletin inserts (two styles, same content) you can download and print up for your church with the specific details for your church on the backside. First are some links for websites that will give you additional ideas not only on Backpack Ministries for this time of year, but year-round for needy children.

Many families need help on a continuing basis. These backpacks aren’t filled with school supplies, but with food for children who may not eat on the weekend without help. Check out churches in your area who may do this and if none do, consider starting that ministry at your church.

May the Lord burn into our hearts the needs of children and make us motivated to meet those needs. May the Lord give you, the church communicator, the passion, power and prayers to create communications that will link needs with resources.

You may freely download, copy, share, use the following inserts in any way you want.
