A church sign is a beacon of guidance and a constant reminder of hope. Outdoor and indoor signs are an integral part of modern-day ministry. These serve not just your congregation but also the community. There are numerous ways to maximize church signs, and here are 5 hacks to use to tap into their digital potential.
Visual accompaniment for sermons
The human brain responds to and processes visual data better than others. A sermon, talk or lecture can attract more attention using visuals in the background. Be it bible verses or photographs from a mission, elevate your Sunday sermon with an indoor LED display. Lyrics on the screen will increase engagement in worship songs.
It can even display greetings and information, such as the time and place of upcoming church events and friendly reminders to participate. These are much more efficient and effective than those relayed by humans. And you have the advantage of repeating and updating this information with minimal effort. Messages can also accompany social media handles, URLs and QR codes to provide further information.
Create a vibe
Whether it is seasonal celebrations or days for reflection, indoor church signs can glam up or tone down vibes. These can enhance atmospheres and create evocative moods with background visuals. You can do the same with outdoor church signs. There’s the flexibility to change images, cinemagraphs and videos. These are more robust, durable and environmentally resistant than traditional decor. And you can change scenery without a cost. You can use these alongside regular decorations. However, in bad weather, your outdoor display wins hands down!
Prompt action
An outdoor church sign is your direct channel of communication with your community. Its visibility to motorists and pedestrians offers you a unique advantage. Messages can reach those not in the usual church loop. Announce volunteer opportunities, fundraising activities and charity drives.
These announcements build awareness of your church activities. Even non-regulars will appreciate and participate. When collecting items, such as blankets and clothes for a cause, the entire community becomes aware. It can lend a hand regardless of association with your church. Outdoor church signs can encourage community action and participation. You can also use these for secondary notifications, such as checking the inbox for the latest newsletter.
Targeted messaging
Your outdoor church sign can display tailored messages to audiences at specific times. When there are programs for parents, you can use school drop-off hours or after-work hours to target them among the passing traffic. Details of youth programs have better exposure to young people during after-school hours. Weekend programs will get an impetus when your message is prominent on Friday nights. You can also offer early morning motivation with a daily bible quote.
Testimonials
Building and strengthening faith is one of the primary goals of the church. Testimonials are influential sources of faith, and sharing these offers hope and optimism. Use outdoor signs to direct audiences to social media or landing pages with testimonials as they happen. Give a concise summary to generate interest and intrigue. It drives traffic to these sites, builds awareness and motivates others to share. Directing to social media pages to read testimonials is a legitimate method to promote your online presence.
