Church embraces voice message broadcasting

Edited by the Marketingservicestalk editorial team Mar 19, 2008
St Michael le Belfrey Church of York has adopted Relay Station's voice message broadcasting service to bring its eight communities together at a regeneration weekend in April.
This is the first time that a church has used voice broadcasting - a personalised message from the Vicar, Roger Simpson, has been sent to the mobiles and landlines of 500 church members encouraging them to register for this important event.
For a number of years, St Michael le Belfery has run a church weekend away at Cliff College, York.
This year, to co-incide with Hope 08, the church has decided to hold a weekend away at home and will run numerous seminars and have times of teaching and worship together at St Peter's School, Bootham, York.
Saturday afternoon, 5 April, will be dedicated to regeneration projects around the City.
"Regeneration Weekend is an important event in St Michael's calendar and a great chance for church members to get together with people from all across the church for teaching, fellowship and mission to our city," said Roger Simpson, Vicar.
"Relay Station's voice broadcasting service has enabled the Church to gain instant outreach to the congregation and to impress upon them the importance of coming along".
Hope 08 is a national initiative with the bold aim of changing Britain.
Christians in every village, town and city are invited to join together to bring the gospel of hope into the communities where they live and work.
