Email Newsletters for Catholic Parishes
Email Newsletters
With rising cost and hard to reach parishioners, email newsletters are a great way of contacting parishioners.
Before the closing prayer has always been the normal slot for announcements, but with so many important activities to engage the parish community that is not enough time. With email newsletters and announcements you can reach the parish community through the medium they check most regularly.
Who doesn’t check their email daily?
The traditional parish bulletin is essential to outreach, but often that’s not enough. With an additional weekly blast the parish can engage on multiple fronts and encourage parish participation.
