Seasonal Media for Your Ministry

Easter, Fall Kickoff, and Christmas are all opportunities to invite your community to your church. What if your graphics, media, and printed materials were all designed and customized for you? And what if you had multiple designs to choose from? 
We are excited to offer you free seasonal graphics, along with signing up for a customized resource package, which includes PDF files of a poster and a postcard that are ready to print. (The postcard is ready to send by direct mail to your community through USPS. See below under "Postcard" for those details.)

Design Choices

This Advent, you can choose from nine different styles. Each style includes:
  • Slides and slide backgrounds
  • Social media graphics
  • Bulletin cover graphic

Postcard & Poster

You can also order a customized poster and postcard to create awareness in your community. The postcard is designed to fit all the USPS requirements as a direct mail piece. The service is called Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM) and you can set it up online through USPS. It's an affordable option to reach every home in your community. There is no need to get a mailing list or stamps. Everything is ready to go the way the postcard is designed. (We also encourage you to talk to your local post office about it to make sure you're on the same page.) Step-by-step instructions available below. 
DUE DATE: December 6 (Friday) | You will receive your media the following week
