As a Flocknote parish, we began to send a simple reminder to parishioners on Mondays about our Tuesday evening Masses during Lent. We saw as much as DOUBLE THE ATTENDANCE just from that easy email reminder using Flocknote.

Since the clergy day in September 2013 when we saw how anyone could build a beautiful parish website in an hour, I have been impressed by eCatholic's powerful yet easy platform. It has been an answer to our diocese and many parishes since then, and new features and functionality are always being added, from easy to build forms and online donations to a variety of Catholic content. We are excited to be partnering with eCatholic and Flocknote on this new Ministry.

Pastors,

We are excited to announce that the Diocese of Worcester is launching its new Communications Ministry for parishes. This includes partnering with eCatholic to provide your parish with a beautiful, mobile-friendly website that is incredibly easy to update as well as Flocknote to provide your parish with smarter way to reach your parishioners via email and text message.

Integrating both eCatholic and Flocknote is quick and simple and will provide your parish with 3 great benefits:

1. Improve Communication - With a beautiful, dynamic, mobile-responsive website, you will be able to more effectively inspire and engage your parishioners. With Flocknote, you'll be able to directly reach them at the most important times: between Sundays and when they stop showing up on Sundays.
2. Save Time and Money - Updating your website using eCatholic and using your Flocknote network are both amazingly quick and simple, and will save your staff time and money.
3. Share Important Content - By using eCatholic, your parish will be able to automatically share great content like the daily Mass from our Diocese, local news, and calendars with local events along with Mass and Confession times as well as Online Giving and event registrations. The Diocese will be able to share great content that you can optionally add to your parish website. Likewise, Flocknote parishes, for example, are able to keeep in touch with parishioners betweeen Masses or when they are away during the year!

We make the transition easy!

The eCatholic and Flocknote teams have worked hard to create a streamlined process that will make transitioning your website and your new communication tool easy for both you and your staff. In most cases, the initial time investment for your parish is only a few minutes. 

What we need from you NOW…

As the pastor for your parish, all you need to do is provide eCatholic & Flocknote with the contact information for the person at your parish that will be in charge of implementing your new website - your eCatholic and Flocknote "Champion(s)". This could be yourself, a staff member or trusted volunteer. The eCatholic & Flocknote team will then reach out to your parish Champion(s) to get started with the simple 3-step process listed above.

Please take a moment and submit the Champion information for your parish:
