Synod Communication Workshop |
 Communication Workshop,
January 12, 2013. 10 am. to 3 pm.
Due to the overwhelming response, the January 12th Communication Workshop is being expanded to include more participants at two locations. The 1st site is at Trinity Lutheran, Worcester with a maximum registration of 50 persons. In addition there will be a satellite site at Camp Calumet, Freedom, NH. that will participate via the Internet with video and interactive sound. The Calumet site registration is limited to a total of 20 participants. To register click on one of the registration links below:
From Bishop Hazelwood: On Saturday, January 12, from 10:00 a.m. 'til 3:00 p.m., I'm inviting 70 people to join me and some gifted people from the field of journalism and communication to explore, learn and improve your communication skills. This is another step in our ongoing efforts to help congregations and the synod as a whole tell better stories. There is no financial cost for this event itself; donations towards lunch at the Trinity Site are appreciated. Those who attend the Calumet site can eat in the dining room for $10.00 per person. The expectation is that you are willing to learn and apply your new found skills to help both your congregation and the synod do a better job in communication. The trade off is simple. We'll teach you how to improve communication in your congregation in exchange for your willingness to be a journalist to tell a few stories a year about your church.
We are looking for people who like to take pictures or video, write stories, ask questions, and/or express themselves creatively through communication. We don't expect you to know everything, just have a willingness to learn more.
At this event, you will:
*Learn the keys to getting better local press coverage of your church.
*Improve the way your church tells its story.
*Become a better photographer.
*Discover ways to use Facebook and the Internet in your church.
*Write a short story about an event at you church.
*Network with professionals eager to help you after this.
Yes, you can bring more than one person from your church, but no more than three. |
