Email Mailing Lists

Simply one single email address (ex. staff@baptistchurch.com) that is received by multiple recipients.   It is like everyone is in the room hearing what others are saying.  There are basically 2 ways you can set them up: 

1. Everyone sees the email, but all replies are directed to the original sender of the email

2. The whole group sees all emails and responses. 

 

An email ring can be utilized for many ministry-specific advantages.

SS Class

Put everyone on the email ring to be able to tell about activities, discuss comments about the lesson, give prayer requests, etc.

Leaders of the Church

Discuss, challenge, and announce things that you dont have time to talk about in the pulpit or teachers meeting.  A great way to get volunteers and build a team.  Let everyone see what others are saying.

Church Staff

Have a separate ring for the internal church staff.  This is how the majority of communication happens at Vision.  Email becomes a task manager and everyone is aware of what everyone is doing.  Like a perpetual staff meeting.

Any other grouping you want

Men of the church,  ladies, singles, ministry friends, couples, SS teachers, music people.  Any email address is valid.

 

WAYS TO START AN EMAIL RING

cPanel - ask your web host if they are capable of accommodating email mailing lists.  This is the way I have experience with email rings, but if you dont have a website or hosting company, here are other ways of accomplishing it.
