Join the New Mexico and Desert Southwest Conferences for an important webinar on crisis communication for churches. It’ll be held on Thursday, January 29th at 10:00 am MT via Zoom. We’re grateful that the featured speaker/instructor will be Brenda Smotherman, Lead Public Relations Officer for The UMC.

Whether you already have a crisis communication binder in your church office and have been through a crisis situation or you’ve never considered the need for a crisis communication strategy, this session is for you and highly recommended for all New Mexico Conference clergy. Register today for this 1.5-hour training. We’ll be discussing creating (or re-evaluating) a crisis communication policy and a step-by-step process that churches can follow when an unfortunate event occurs at your church. We’ll cover the components of crisis communication – addressing your congregation, community, and the media. A Q&A will be included.

The webinar will be recorded. Even if you think you might not be able to make it, register so that you get the webinar recording link via email.
