Understanding and Embracing Your Ministry’s Annual Cycles (05/20)
Every congregation experiences a unique rhythm throughout the year, shaped by the journey of visitors, the engagement of regular attendees, and the impact of strategic marketing. Join us for an insightful session on The Congregational Year, where we’ll explore how to align your ministry’s efforts with these natural cycles to foster growth and connection.
In this session, we will:
- Map out the typical cycles of visitor engagement, regular attendance, and seasonal involvement.
- Discuss strategies for creating welcoming pathways from first-time visits to deeper participation.
- Learn how to time your marketing and outreach efforts for maximum impact.
- Explore how to maintain engagement and energy during both high- and low-activity seasons.
This session is perfect for congregational leaders, membership teams, and communications committees looking to deepen connections, grow participation, and align their activities with the natural flow of congregational life. Let’s make the most of every season in your ministry!
Each session is an opportunity to learn from experts, share experiences, and collaborate with peers from other congregations. Whether you are a congregational leader, staff member, or volunteer, these meetings offer invaluable resources to strengthen your ministry and align your practices with Unitarian Universalist principles.
These interactive sessions provide practical guidance and shared learning on a variety of topics, including:
- Best Practices for Communications: Developing effective and inclusive strategies to connect with your community.
- Fundraising Essentials: Building sustainable resources to support your mission.
- Administrative Excellence: Streamlining operations to foster growth and efficiency.
- Policy Development: Crafting policies that reflect your congregation’s vision and values.
