Communication Policy & Publication Request Form
Plan your publication strategy as far in advance as possible.
Due to space and time restrictions, we advise all Ministry Leaders to plan their communication strategy for publications at least 8 weeks before the event.
Your publication may not be approved if you do not plan your strategy effectively. If there are any changes to your event date or information after you submit the Publication Request Form, please inform your Staff Point of Contact.
The Communication Team will work with Ministry Leaders, but ultimately we will make the decisions on which publication methods will be used to promote events.
Event Planning Timeline
Please refer to the chart below when organizing your events.
Publications
In order to produce quality products and maintain clear communication, it is required that all requests be submitted by the 8-week deadline to guarantee publication. If you have professionally pre-made products, they still must be approved by the Communication Team first.
Graphics used in publications must either be original photographs (used with permission of those in the pictures), purchased stock photos, or graphics created within the church office. We will not use copyrighted images or those pulled off the web without permission.
