eNews
Join more than 5000 Lutherans and friends who are receiving LCA eNews in their inboxes every fortnight – and keep up to date with what's going on around the LCANZ, including events, services and training opportunities.
The Lutheran
Do you like to sit down with a tea or coffee and flick through a magazine with real pages? The Lutheran is our multi-award-winning publication, packed with news and inspiration from around the LCANZ. It's published every two months – and is also available in digital format.
Bulletin & Announcements
Easy-to-go bulletin inserts and PowerPoint slides are your best friends when you're preparing Sunday's pew bulletin and after-worship announcements. We've created them for you, so you can help spread the word!
Podcasts
If you're a listener rather than a reader, our podcasts are perfect for you. You can keep up to date with church news and the latest resources while you are on the daily commute, driving the header or pounding the treadmill.
Social Media
Social media is a gift of God by which share the good news with people we'd otherwise never reach. It can be a tricky, even unsafe, place to navigate though. Our social media tips and tools will help you use social media wisely and well.
Online Worship & Ministry
Many congregations share their worship and ministry activities online. This includes livestreaming, pre-recorded video content and podcasting. This is great – but there are some things to consider before setting off into the online world. We've developed some guidelines for you.
Websites
Thinking about building a website? We've built more than 20 agency and district websites and around 50 congregation websites. Our experience can help you. Check out the tips and tools we've developed to get you started.
Copyright
Most LCANZ congregations and agencies use, reproduce, store or distribute copyright-protected material. The Churchwide team keeps abreast of copyright legislation applicable to our communities, and we've curated and collated the essential information for you.
Public Responses
Imagine a critical incident happening at your church, or a media crew turning up unannounced to interview you? It's important that you know what to do, and what not to do in situations like this. Our Public Responses to Incidents policy and guidelines will prepare and protect you.
Logos & Branding
The LCA and LCNZ logos are like our family crest. They tell the world who we are and whose we are, and they unite us all under one banner. The Churchwide team has developed brand guidelines for congregations and agencies, using the correct forms, positioning and colours of the LCA logo.
Design Services
Our contract designers (who have worked with us for so long that they feel like part of our team) can design your stationery and signage, using the correct logo and LCANZ branding standards. This work is done on a fee-for-service basis. We are happy to provide cost estimates.
Name Badges
Don't forget your name badge! It's a little thing, yes, but it makes visitors and new members feel so much more comfortable if they don't have to struggle to remember everyone's name. We can help you get that little (but important) part of your welcome sorted.
