The United Methodist Church advertising has begun – contrasting the usual sales ads with an alternative: Reclaim Christmas.
How does your local church benefit from national advertising?
- Rethinkchurch.org highlights local church activities on the home page, allowing seekers to get a sense of your congregation’s “personality”
- As you post information on www.find-a-church.org/advent, Rethink Church pulls that information into church profiles so visitors can get involved. (example: http://rethinkchurch.org/church/sixty-first-avenue-united-methodist-church)
- Automatic notifications (via your church’s email) will let you see how many are being exposed to your church because of the national advertising.
So, you may be asking: What do I have to do?
- If you haven’t already, update your Find-A-Church profile so people see how your local church is living Christ’s message throughout Advent – and throughout the year. The rethinkchurch.org site will continue to connect visitors with your church all year long – serving as a bridge to your community and beyond.
- Take the Reclaim Christmas pledge on Facebook www.facebook.com/umcrethinkchurch
New! Reclaim Christmas multimedia will assist you in local promotions.
