In the last year, we've seen Bishops, Vicars and Chrisitan influencers go viral on TikTok, reaching a younger audience with Biblical truths.

In this panel session, we'll be joined by Rev'd Anne Beverley, who in the last year has grown her church TikTok channel to more than 50K followers (take a look here).

We'll be asking how she grew the channel, her content creation tips, secrets to going viral, and how she pastors a christian and non-christian audience through the platform. 

The one-hour chat will be relevant to anyone who wants to use their social media presence to reach new audiences.

Churches rely on the generosity of their congregations and their communities to support their mission and ministry. Many people give regularly to their church by standing order or direct debit. Others give in cash when the offering is taken in a church service or when visiting the church, and people will not be able to give in this way whilst our church buildings are closed.

Many individuals are going through financial uncertainty as a result of lost or changed employment during the restrictions, and that may affect their giving too. This means that it is even more important that those who can give are able to do so.

In this one-hour webinar, we'll cover setting up and receiving online donations, encouraging online donations, communicating with your community, as well as providing an opportunity to ask questions which will be answered live.
