There are many ways we publicize information: 1. Bulletin 2. Information Display (Graphic) 3. E-News 4. Website 5. VCB News 6. Table and/or Collection Bins (before/after weekend services)
GUIDELINES
1. Bulletin Announcements in the bulletin should be 2-3 short sentences and requested at least 1 month in advance.
2. Information Display (Graphic) Information should be given to the tech team as well as any design requests. Allow at least 2 weeks for a graphic to be designed.
3. E-News Information in the bulletin will also be published in the E-News on Thursdays. Announcements should be no larger than a small paragraph of 3-7 sentences and requested at least 1 week in advance.
4. Website The VCB website lists all our events. Submit all details here so people can find everything they need. Events should be requested at least 1 week in advance and will not be published until they have a start date and time.
5. VCB News (limited space available) VCB News announcements are selected by staff leadership each week. To be considered, requests must be made at least 1 week in advance, but due to very limited availability, priority will be given to church wide events first. All announcements should be able to be read aloud in under 30 seconds. Events will be given a maximum of 3 times in the VCB News .
6. Table and/or Collection Bins (before/after weekend services) Table and collection bin requests should be submitted at least 2 weeks in advance. Tables have 2 slots available per weekend, and collection bins have 1 slot available per weekend. Collection bins are needed when requesting donations of items such as clothing, etc. Please note that table and bin requests will not be accepted without submitting signage wording – a sign will be created and provided for you.
