St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Saratoga has created their summer brochure to keep their members informed about the programs and opportunities for discipleship, fellowship  and outreach.

The brochure, Walking in the Way,  is accessible in various places around the church and it is integrated into their website. The brochure is bright, full of white space for easier reading and great opportunities. The Rev. Peggy Bryan who designed the brochure serves as the Outreach Associate at the church. The brochure she created evokes emotion and invites peoples’ participation with the opening line… “Jesus, bold, fearless, pioneer of civil rights, social agitator, visionary….consider a summer of adventure and exploration walking his way.” The brochure lists nine programs with brief, powerful, compassionate and common language.

Jesus moved among the outcasts and the needy, those dwelling on the fringe of society. He confronted spirits. He went out of his way to seek restoration and healing. Jesus was in solidarity with the ostracized and marginalized. We are called to follow him in his ministry. Saint Andrew’s 2011 Summer of Grace offers extraordinary opportunities to challenge assumptions and foster understanding, awareness, and empathy. Walk with us. 

Having bright, attractive and up-to-date information and invitational materials is important to the ongoing engagement and formation of church members and goes it helps to attract the attention and participation of visitors and new members.  If your church is not currently producing seasonal brochures, consider linking the theme into the liturgical or common US geographic seasons using similar colors, themes and content that will resonate with the spirit of the times and the yearning of the soul.
