TOP 4 WAYS:
- First Church E-nnouncements & Order of Service Announcements - Submit to sharon [dot] murphy
uumilwaukee [dot] org (subject: Announcements) Weekly deadline: Thursday 9:00 a.m.; limit 75 words - Chanticleer (printed & online monthly PDF newsletter) - Submit to sharon [dot] murphyuumilwaukee [dot] org (subject: Chanticleer) Deadline: the third Monday of each month at 9:00 a.m.; limit 250-300 words
- Facebook page (First Unitarian Society of Milwaukee) https://www.facebook.com/pages/First-Unitarian-Society-of-Milwaukee/246633904835 - Post directly yourself! To post, make sure you are a "Friend" of the First Church Facebook page (i.e., you "Like" the page.) There is a limit of 420 characters. Just click on the "Status" icon (found just under the Wall/Photo/Info, etc., tabs.) This opens up a box in which you can enter your text. When done, hit the big blue "Share" button. This broadcasts your post as a new item to appear on the News home pages of all Facebook friends of the church. Tips: keep it short, no wordy phrases. Add extra details as a comment after the initial post. Do a brief follow-up post or a reminder a few days before your event.
- First Church Blog (What's Going on at First Church") http://uumilwaukee.wordpress.com/- Submit your announcement to phil_martinsbcglobal [dot] net (subject: First%20Church%20Blog) . Phil will edit lightly if needed and post it. Ideal length: 300-800 words; can include links to related websites. This is a good place to provide commentary or extra details that don't fit Facebook or elsewhere. Tip: oriet this text to non-church members.
