Our new curriculum for Wednesday night small groups is absolutely awesome. One of the coolest features is the ability to set up an online group to send bulk text messages. This way, we can keep in touch with everyone; parents, students, leaders. Please sign up
Why is this important? Well communication has proven to be the single most difficult task of managing a junior high ministry. There is no single way to connect with every student. Even if there was a way, junior high students don’t make all their own decisions; and they sometimes (….ok, usually) forget to tell their parents about information that may be given out on paper. My hope is that you’ll sign up and sign up your student.
We’ve made some rules for ourselves to make you more comfortable with the system.
- First of all, the data is secure. When you sign up, your data is encrypted; plus we are only asking for a name, phone number, and cell carrier.
- Next, only the FMC Directors of Young Teens have access to the list. They are exclusivley responsible for the number, timing, and content of text messages.
- Finally, phone numbers will never, ever be shared with anyone for any reason, period.
