New Baptist Temple Church Directory Coming Soon

SAN ANTONIO, Sep. 28, 2009 We are excited to announce that we are going to create a new pictorial directory of our Baptist Temple Church family.  The directory will be done by Olan Mills at no cost to the congregation, and will help us greatly in connecting names with faces.  It will also serve as an outreach tool that will capture the history of our congregation and help everyone learn more about who we are and what we believe.

Please participate!  All we ask is that you have your picture taken by the professional photographer and meet with a portrait consultant at the church when you come in for your portrait sitting.  There is no obligation to buy anything, but you will have the opportunity to purchase portraits should you choose.  For the next several weeks, we will be promoting the program and asking for your participation.  Please sign up as soon as possible to get an appointment that best suits your schedule.

Sign up sheets will be available concurrently online via a link on our website: www.baptistemple.org.  The online sign up will open up the week of Oct 4 and run through approximately noon on Monday, Nov 23rd.

Sign up charts will also be available following worship services on Oct 4, 11, 18 and 25, and then again Nov 8, 15, 22 and 29.  Sign up charts will also be available in the office during the week beginning Monday Oct 5.  You can also call Olan Mills directly to make or change an appointment time at 1-800-866-2263.

• Every participating family/household will receive a free directory and complimentary 8 x 10 Custom Natural Portrait.
• You will come to the church only once for photography and the portrait viewing.  The entire process should take about an hour.
• Price lists for the portraits are available at the sign up tables and in the office.  If you wish to purchase portraits, they come with a 100% money back guarantee.
• Whether you decide to dress formally or casually, you will want to make the most of this opportunity.  The directory won’t be complete without you.

Portraits will be taken on the following dates:

o        Monday, October 26, 3-9:30

o        Monday, November 30, 3-9:30

o        Tuesday. December 1, 3-9:30

 If you have any questions, please contact the church office.  We look forward to seeing everyone in the directory.
