Anyone who has been around churches for a while knows the value of a church photo directory. They are fantastic tools to get to know faces in a congregation.

 

However, printed copies quickly go out of date. People in the directory may never be seen at church and people in the church may not be in the directory.

​

In this digital age, there is a better solution.

​

Almost every church now uses a database program to manage congregational information. Most of those church directories allow images of individuals to be uploaded, managed and printed on demand, including photos. In many cases churches now have color copiers that can print the photos in color. PDF’s can be created and shared electronically on a computer or a device.

​

There is no need to update every photo in the directory every year - only those that are new or need updating. And professional quality photography means you are publishing clear recognizable images rather than home snapshots that can be difficult to make out.

​

If your church does not have the software to do this , they are easy to obtain and on-line church directories (example only) are available typically costing as little as $10 US/mo.
