How Churches Are Using Pages to Communicate More Clearly (and Actually Get Seen)
Ever feel like your church announcements are competing with the noise of life?
You pour time into crafting the perfect weekly email, only to find out most people never opened it. You hand out bulletins, but they get left on seats or buried in purses. Even the most important event reminders get lost in the shuffle.
The truth is, your people want to stay connected, they just need the information in a way that’s easy to access and hard to miss. That’s where Pages come in.
Pages in Text In Church give you a single, mobile-friendly link where you can share everything from Sunday’s sermon notes to your next volunteer rally, and actually have it be seen. No design skills. No extra software. Just a simple, clear way to help your church family feel known, noticed, and loved… without adding more to your plate.
In this post, we’ll show you real-life ways churches are using Pages to simplify communication, boost engagement, and make sure no one falls through the cracks.
What Are Pages?
Pages are mobile-friendly, customizable landing pages you can create directly inside your Text In Church account. They're perfect for sharing more info than a text can hold, while being more engaging (and more likely to be seen) than an email.
7 Ways to Use Pages in Church Ministry
1. Weekly Digital Bulletins That Actually Get Read
Instead of relying on a printed handout or email blast, many churches are creating a single Page link and updating it weekly. This "evergreen" link is sent via text and email, and includes everything from announcements and sermon notes to volunteer needs and event details.
Bonus: Some churches even embed this Page link on their website under a "This Week at [Church Name]" button!
2. Event Invitations with RSVP Options
Pages make it easy to promote upcoming events. One church created a Page for their Women’s Outreach night with a short video invite, all the event info, and an RSVP form at the bottom. The result? Higher attendance and fewer last-minute questions.
Use it for:
- Small groups sign-ups
- Volunteer rallies
- Seasonal events (like Fall Festivals or Christmas Programs)
3. Devotionals, Bible Plans, and Spiritual Encouragement
Got a devotional series or Scripture reading plan? Pages are perfect for delivering that content in a clean, readable way. Whether you're offering a 7-day family devotional or a weekly prayer guide, you can send it out via text and update it regularly.
Churches have also used Pages to:
- Share post-sermon reflection questions
- Deliver Lenten or Advent devotionals
- Offer digital resources for parents or youth
4. Multi-Step Guides or Series
One church used Pages for a Good Friday experience. Each Page included a video, Scripture, and reflection prompts. You simply simply tapped "Next" to continue through the journey to the next Page.
Other ideas:
- New member class steps
- Volunteer onboarding
- VBS or student ministry rotations
5. Digital Resource Delivery
Need to share a downloadable guide, a PDF checklist, or a follow-up resource after a sermon or event? Pages make it easy. Just include a button that links to your document or form.
This is especially helpful for:
- New believer resources
- Event recaps with media links
6. Quick Polls and Engagement Tools
Want feedback or just some fun interaction? Pages support emoji reactions, so you can run simple polls. One church asked: "Which worship song should we sing this Sunday?" and let people vote with a single tap.
This feature is great for:
- Choosing sermon series topics
- Gathering quick feedback from members
- Engaging youth and student ministries
7. Personalized Thank You Messages and Celebrations
Pages also make an amazing tool for sending video-based appreciation. One church created a Page to thank VBS volunteers, featuring a short video, behind-the-scenes photos, and a message of gratitude from the pastor. It was sent via text as a heartfelt follow-up.
You can also use this for:
- Birthday or anniversary shoutouts
- Staff or volunteer appreciation
- Baptism recaps and next steps
Why Pages Work (and Why Churches Love Them)
- Mobile-First Design: Pages are designed to look great on any phone
- Higher Engagement: Text a Page link and it’s more likely to be seen than an email
- Easy to Update: Reuse the same link and keep it fresh
- No Tech Overwhelm: No website required. Just drag and drop content.
