Episcopal Communicators Membership Updates We are updating membership to make it easier and more accessible, especially for smaller and more rural parishes and dioceses. First, we are switching from annual membership (everyone renews January 1) to rolling membership (you renew the day you joined)! We hope this will make it easier for you to join and take advantage of membership benefits as soon as possible. During this transition process, we will make adjustments to accommodate those who joined this last year. Second, we are going to offer a diocesan group package intended for dioceses to grant memberships to smaller churches with communications professionals (employed or volunteer) who otherwise could not afford a membership. More details about this will come soon, though diocesan communicators have already heard about this opportunity through a pilot launch earlier this year. EpisComm24 in Portland, Maine!
While details are almost ready for public viewing, it is time to make plans with your time and budget to join our 50th year celebration in April in Portland, Maine. The committee and host diocese are working on some really cool surprises for this event, in addition to the fellowship and learning opportunities you’ve come to love. As a reminder, we do have scholarships available. Check Us Out in Houston and the Episcopal Parish Network! Episcopal Communicators is once again sponsoring the Episcopal Parish Network annual gathering pre-conference for communicators. Taking place in Houston on March 6-9th, the pre-conference will focus on compelling storytelling with exciting speakers from public broadcasting, national politics, and Episcopal Communicators! We will also hold a regular workshop at EPN aimed at non-communications staff about the importance of investing in communications capacity. Comments are closed.
