ABOUT
Faith Hope Love is the theme of the 2011 Christmas postcard campaign.
The Queensland Synod and the Synod of Victoria and Tasmania’s communication teams are again partnering with congregations to produce high-quality, low-cost resources for Christmas outreach in local communities.
This campaign aims to present an image of the local Uniting Church as a place to worship and reconnect with the Christmas story. In recent years many congregations became the centre of their communities during times of disaster and this is another chance to show your local community that the local church cares.
The words “Faith Hope Love” not only come from one of the best known bible verses, but also from the Uniting Church in Queensland’s Call statement: Uniting in Christ: acting with love, living with hope, witnessing in faith, working for justice.
Additional materials provided online will include copies of the artwork for local congregational use, PowerPoint templates and a downloadable colouring in page
If you have resources relating to the theme or ideas for using this theme (e.g. church banner patterns using the words faith, hope or love) that you want to share with the wider church please email journey@ucaqld.com.au.
COSTS
Starter pack: 3000 postcards and 10 full colour A3 posters – $165 (Includes packing and postage to your congregation).
Additional postcards are available at $130 for 3000 (minimum lot) and posters at $10 for packs of 10.
An invoice will be sent addressed to your treasurer in November. Please fill in the billing address section in the registration form.
ART
Postcards will have the full colour Faith Hope Love theme and artwork on one side.
A3 Posters in full colour gloss will have the same theme and matching artwork and will have a small blank space for you to write a message. These are designed for placement in shopping centres and community notice boards.
Postcards can be distributed by contract letterbox delivery services at around $45 per 1000 or by Australia Post or other organisations (contact your local Post office for information) or can be hand delivered by congregation members. This service is not provided by the Communications Services Unit.
When delivering please do not put in letter boxes with “no junk mail” or “Australia post only” signs. While we don’t think this is junk mail, people have complained in the past.
Congregations will need to complete their order by the deadline.
On the back of the card please include service and event times, a contact person and number and/or email (not just the church office) and other information for the back of the postcard by the deadline.
