Church Bulletin
A common feature for many churches is to add a weekly bulletin to their website. We can achieve this using resource groups as follows
Setup the Bulletin Resource Group
- In the main menu go to Content > Resources > Add Resource Group,
- Give the resource group a name like "Church Bulletin",
- Write a summary, for example: "Read our weekly church bulletins"
- Add an image by clicking the plus icon. In the pop-up window click on Stock Images and do a search for a term like "book" to see plenty of great images to use. Click on an image to select it.
- Click Save
Add Bulletins to the Resource Group
- While viewing the resource group, click Add Download
- Select the PDF file to upload or click on the Documents tab to select a document you previously uploaded.
- Once the PDF is uploaded, click the plus icon to add it to the resource group.
- Set the name of the bulletin e.g. "Bulletin 15 March 2025" and then click Save
You can repeat these steps to add bulletins
