Short form announcements have 5 elements, 2 of which you’ve already provided (Title & Date/Time/Location). The last are three sentences: 1) Describe the situation (from the audience perspective). 2) Unpack the benefit to the audience. 3) Call to Action.
Example: Missions Car Wash Wed Mornings 9-11AM Prayer Room Dirty cars are everywhere! Get your car cleaned and support GCOF Global Outreach at our car wash. Come to the church Sunday at 1PM or see the website for future times.
For long form announcements (Bulletin features, web articles, FB posts, etc) you will want to take the same structure as the short form and amplify it into at least a paragraph.
Please proof-read this text, as it will be copy and pasted into the communications channels and may not be proofed.
