Communications Road Show Begins in January

Here is a free training that Pastor Jamie has bought to my attention. I have
registered for the Orlando event. If anyone else want to go, we can car
pool.
Communications Road Show begins next January

In an effort to provide resources to local churches on a more direct basis,
Florida United Methodist Communications will be hitting the road in 2008,
offering training workshops on a variety of communication tools.

"The Communications Road Show" will visit four areas of the Florida
Conference, offering the same six workshops at each venue, designed to
assist and improve communications in a local church setting.

The Road Show's purpose is to offer people throughout the conference tips
and "best practices" on how their communications ministries can be improved.
Each Road Show stop will offer workshops for clergy and laity, church
administrators, church volunteers in communications ministry and those just
thinking about getting started.

Workshop topics include:
• Web Casting
• Getting Started with your Pod Cast
• Planning for Print
• Web Development 101
• Data Management 101
• Crisis Communication for Clergy

Each Road Show will start at 9:30 a.m. with coffee and light snacks. A brief
opening worship will be at 10 a.m., and the first round of workshops will
begin at 10:30 a.m. A lunch, available for $10, will be served from noon
until 1 p.m. (If you want lunch, you must sign up for it when you register;
payment for lunch will be collected at the door.) The second round of
workshops--the mornings offerings repeated--will start at 1 p.m. The day
will end no later than 3 p.m.

Locations of the Road Show and dates are:
• Saturday, Jan. 12, 2008 - First United Methodist Church, Lake City
• Saturday, Feb. 9 - Peace United Methodist Church, Orlando
