This episode comes with a special guide you can download and follow along- for FREE! Download it to help you craft your next Ministry Update Email.
Do you ever sit down to write a ministry update email and think:
“What do I even say?”
You’re not alone. Most ministry leaders feel stuck, vague, or uninspired when it comes to updates. But here’s the problem: if your donors don’t feel connected, they’re more likely to drift away. And when budgets tighten, disconnected donations are usually the first to go.
That’s why your updates are so important—they’re not just a “have to,” they’re how you nurture the very relationships that fuel your ministry.
The good news? Writing effective updates doesn’t have to be overwhelming.
I created a free Ministry Update Guide to make it simple. Inside, you’ll learn:
How to write subject lines that get opened
A simple structure for every update
Practical ways to engage your donors so they feel connected and valued
