Two Post Pentecost Posters

Parishes may use two welcome posters designed by Jenifer Gamber for the second part of our long Pentecost season. Once again, Jenifer has volunteered to customize the posters for parishes in the Diocese of Bethlehem free of charge. Parishes that request this, will receive a pdf file of the 11" X 17" poster that they can have duplicated at a local printer or at Minuteman Press in Bethlehem. Cost of duplication is about $1 per copy. Let Jenifer know if you’d like her to send you pdf files of the posters customized for your parish.

To view a sample, download the posters customized for the Cathedral Church of the Nativity.

Postcard Campaign for Fall

The Cathedral Church of the Nativity continues its postcard campaign with a fall mailing to 4,000 local households (excluding members of other local Episcopal Churches) using the postcard you may download below. It is designed with a back-to-school theme in mind that coincides with the beginning of Cathedral’s Sunday School and Adult Forum classes. Parishes in the Diocese of Bethlehem are invited to use the 4.5 X 8.5" postcard. Jenifer Gamber has offered to customize the wording on the front and back for your parish. We plan to have Minuteman Press of Bethlehem, PA to print all postcards and share the cost savings from a larger print run. E-mail Jenifer for more information (cost of production and mailing as well as dates for copy) if your parish would like to join this effort of invitation to your local community.

Poster for Lent

Jenifer Gamber of the Cathedral has created another stunning poster for Lent, for all entryways. This poster features a photograph by Anne Wetzel of pectoral crosses of Primates and Presiding Bishops at the Lambeth Conference in 1998. She said she was attracted to this image because it so vividly shows the diversity of the Anglican Communion and the variety of ways of the cross.

 

Jenifer has offered to customize the poster for other parishes in our diocese. You may email Jenifer to discuss this. Download the poster below.
