Vine shouldn’t be used to attempt to get an entire message across, but it should be used as a conversation starter and to get people curious about your ministry. If used creatively Vine will spur curiosity that will hopefully turn into a visit to your church.

1. Promo for the Weekend

Show the sermon graphic and tell them why they should attend.

2. What to Expect When Visiting

For first-time guests, show parking, seating options and facilities.

3. A Day in the Life of the Pastor

Who doesn’t want to know what a pastor does during the day? Use Vine to capture short clips of what you do.

4. Children’s Ministry

Show children having fun, making sounds and faces, learning, etc.
