In a Technology Driven World, Are Paper Bulletins Obsolete?

To answer that we need to first ask why are we distributing those colorful bulletins routinely cluttering your church foyer!

Bulletins are designed to keep people informed of what’s going on in the church and include upcoming events, recent giving and attendance stats and space for notes about the sermon. Bulletins should also include information for visitors and provide an opportunity for greeters to connect with these guests.

But, couldn't I use an e-newsletter or the trendy, new way of showing pre-taped video announcements?

Sure, but you might miss some really important people too! The taped announcements won't be available to the dad who stepped out to soothe his infant in childcare and the first-time visitor at your church is probably going to be too nervous to remember everything you just said! E-newsletters will often miss your older generations, new visitors or anyone without regular access to a computer.

Bulletins can be pricey and difficult to design and print—how can I make this easier at my church?

Warner Press offers a unique subscription service called Weekly Worship Bulletin Service that provides beautifully, designed bulletins delivered quarterly to your doorstep for a huge discount! You won't have to worry about when to order, what to say, or the added cost of paper—we take care of it for you!
