SERVICES OFFERED
I offer a variety of services to help meet your church’s unique communications and administrative needs. Scroll down to learn more!
I believe in keeping my prices transparent - because there’s nothing worse than having to guess if something is within your budget. You’ll find detailed information about my pricing here, so you know exactly what to expect if you decide to work with me.
Please note that for any service, I will send drafts of my designs and writing to you for feedback and revisions for the first two weeks/occurances. After I understand your needs and learn your style, I will publish my designs directly. My mission is to save you time so you can focus on other aspects of your ministry!
Your first two weeks of work with me will receive a 20% discount!

E-Newsletters
Weekly Newsletter
(basic)
Keep your community informed on everything your church is doing! This newsletter goes out via email once a week and may include event announcements, information about Sunday services, important updates, and pastoral reflections. Many churches I work with consider this to be an essential service.
With the basic package, you send me all written portions (event descriptions, articles, etc.). I will create graphics to promote your events and Sunday service and format everything in a newsletter that goes out to your email list once a week.
$25 initial startup fee
to import contacts and
create a signup system
$50 per newsletter
including up to 12 content blocks (events, articles, updates, Sunday service info, etc.)
+$5
for each additional content block over 12
Weekly Newsletter
(deluxe)
Want to save even more time? My deluxe newsletter service works just like the basic package, with one important change: rather than writing everything yourself, you can simply send me bullet points for all of your events, articles, and any other written portion. I’ll turn your bullet points into writing suitable for your church’s newsletter.
This service includes writing for short blocks of text (five or less sentances, typically for event information or quick updates). For lengthier writings (anything over five sentances, typically for detailed announcements, short articles, pastoral reflections), an additional charge applies.

Want to remind people about church the morning of or evening before your service? This email will replicate info about your upcoming service found in your weekly newsletter and give folks that extra reminder. This is particuarly useful if you livestream, as folks will have your livestream link at the top of their inbox.
If you utilize my bulletin creation services (see “Worship Administration” below), this reminder will also include a digitial version of your bulletin, optimized for at-home viewership, that your viewers can use while watching your livestream.
Worship Reminder Email
Note that if you opt for this service without a weekly newsletter, a $25 startup
fee will also apply.
$25 per reminder
Event Reminder
Email
Have an event you want to give an extra push to? Similar to the worship reminder email, this can be useful to remind your community about an important event you want to emphasize. This email will include information from your weekly newsletter, with extra emphasis added to help advertise your event.
Note that if you opt for this service without a weekly newsletter, a $25 startup
fee will also apply.
$25 per reminder
Monthly, Quarterly, or
Yearly Report
Monthly, quarterly, or yearly newsletters can serve to highlight what your church has done recently. While weekly newsletters promote what’s coming up, these newsletters celebrate what has already taken place. You send me the text for your articles and pictures from past events, and I’ll format a newsletter as a PDF, meaning it can be shared easily via email and through print. Pricing also includes emailing the newsletter to your community.
$100
for up to 10 pages

Graphic Design
Event Promo Graphics & Simple Designs
My pricing for weekly newsletters includes the creation of graphics for each event your church is announcing. These graphics can be re-sized and used for other needs for free!
If you aren’t using a newsletter, or need a design made for something not included in your newsletter, this is for you! Graphics to promote events and other simple designs (such as flyers or signs) can be provided upon request.
$10
per graphic
Church Print Materials
Need a visitor’s card, church info brochure, tithe envelope, welcome packet, or something else? When done well, these graphics can make a big impact on impressions from visitors.
starting at $50
per item
More complex or customized design projects may cost extra.
Social Media
Social Media Management
In our current digital age, social media is critical for any church communication strategy. As part of my social media management package, I will promote your church’s events on social media (Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, or any combination of the three) using graphics and text. I will also make other posts, including holiday graphics and posts from church staff. You are guaranteed at least three posts per week, which is helpful for any church but especially churches trying to establish a digital footprint.
Additionally, I will monitor all active social media accounts daily to delete and report spam and offensive content. Small progressive churches are especially susceptible to hate speech or scam attempts - let me protect your community so you don’t have to worry about it!
$50/week
if you have a weekly newsletter
$75/week
if you don’t have a weekly newsletter
Sermon Video Captioning & Posting
If you preach every Sunday, you are creating content that can easily be re-purposed for social media! You can post your whole sermon to be viewed online, or select highlights to post as either a video or reel.
Whether you’re posting a video or a reel, properly edited captions ensure that you get your message across a wider audience and significantly increases your likelihood of gaining more views. I can also include your church’s name, logo, and contact info before or after your video if desired.
$15 per video
includes up to five minutes, timestamps provided if you’d like to post only a clip
+$2
for each additional minute
+$10
I will watch your video and select a 1-2 minute highlight for you
Other Video Captioning & Posting
Some churches find it helpful for their staff to post other videos to social media, such as announcement videos or online sermons/reflections. Just like sermon videos, I’ll provide custom-edited captions and include your church’s name, logo, and contact info before or after your video if desired.
includes up to five minutes
$15 per video
+$2
for each additional minute
Need to cancel service or an event due to the weather or another emergency? If you are using any social media service, I will announce any cancelation on all active social media accounts for free!

Sermon Summaries & Reflections
Looking to increase your congregation’s engagement with your weekly sermons? With my sermon summary and reflection service, I will watch a recording of your sermon, provide a summary that captures your main points, and offer some points and questions for viewers to reflect on. This can be shared via email or social media for your community to deepen their reflection. This can be done for a particular sermon that sticks out to you.

Want to make my sermon reflections a part of your congregation’s weekly routine? I offer this service at a discount if you’d like to commit to a full month of sermon reflections!
Weekly Sermons

If you’re preaching a series and would like a reflection on the whole series upon it’s completion, this is for you! This is a good way to remind your community about what was covered during the series.

Please note that your church must have the rights to display any lyrics, prayers, and other writing for slides and/or bulletins.

Worship Materials
Creating slides to display song lyrics, prayers, and announcements is an important way to ensure everyone can participate in your worship service. Rather then spending your time each week creating slides, send me an outline of your worship service and I’ll create visually engaging slides for you to use. To include song lyrics, I will also need a copy of the lyrics or a scan of your sheet music.
Worship Slides
$75
per presentation
Worship bulletins are a tried and true way to include the congregation in your worship service. Send me an outline of your worship service (along with lyrics and prayers, if desired), and I will create a bi-fold bulletin that you can easily print and fold ahead of each Sunday’s service. My bulletins include a front and back cover as well as six half-pages for text. Be sure to check out my portfolio to view my two design options!

to accomodate overflow beyond the included six half-pages
Administrative Support
If you sign up for my directory service, I also have the ability to send text messages to your congregation. This can be useful for reminders, updates, or cancelations that need to be communicated quickly.

Event RSVP/Signup Management
Have an event that requires a signup or headcount? Let me manage signups for your potluck or manage volunteer sign-ups for your next big event. I’ll manage signups, give reminders to your congregation, and keep you updated as we go.
