If your church communications seem one-sided lately, generating as much response as a conversation with a statue, it's time for a reset.

Fortunately, UMC Training from United Methodist Communications saves the day with online studies, including a specially reduced priced 3-in-1 training bundle, Connection Through Communication or the focused session, Internal Church Communication.

Through either the bundle or the single session, you'll discover tools and techniques that will help you create a communications plan tailored for your congregation, emphasizing consistent messaging, email and newsletter communications, and working with volunteers.

Start the online courses at any time, and work at your own pace with full access for six months. UMC Training offers other church training live, online and even provides do-it-yourself opportunities to help you gain the knowledge and skills needed to be an even more effective church leader.

Enhancing your communications' skills through the coursework, you'll be better positioned to make your congregational calls to action thrive!
