- Word of mouth and hitting “share” on your social media platforms are your best avenue for talking up what is happening at First Presbyterian Church!
- Work with your ministry’s staff liaison to come up with other ways to share the good news of the ministry you oversee—be creative!
- If your event needs extra promotion or attention, reach out directly about your committee’s particular special event to Director of Communications, at [email protected].
When you are planning an event, here are some steps your committee needs to be sure to cover:
- Is your event on the calendar? To see about available dates and rooms in the church, please fill out the form below and send it to ([email protected]) to get your date and the location of your event locked in. Your date is NOT guaranteed unless the receptionist confirms with your committee/group that it is on the master calendar. The receptionist also assists with church van/bus reservations.
- Do you need access to the Fellowship Hall Kitchen and/or catering services? Please be in touch with Sherry Moore ([email protected]), kitchen liaison, at least two weeks in advance of your event if you need access to the Fellowship Hall kitchen. The church has a preferred caterer who is familiar with our kitchen space who can be lined up for your events. To use the church’s preferred caterer will be a cost savings to your group.
- For room set up, A/V set up and facility issues, please be in touch with Rodney Owens ([email protected]) at least two weeks in advance.
For all of your events, the sooner you are in touch with the aforementioned staff persons, the more smoothly your event will run.
