Every church leader knows it well—the “here come the announcements” moment during service, when all eyes turn toward you with anticipation. Dates, names, and details can easily get lost if you’re trying to remember everything off the cuff. That’s where church announcement templates come in handy!
These scripts help you stay focused on the message and ensure you relay all the necessary information for things like upcoming events, prayer requests, and serving opportunities. You’ll save yourself time and create an engaging message to use during service, through weekly emails, or posted in your church bulletins.
Check out the following church announcement templates we created for you to customize as you wish, whether for regular church happenings or special events.
From baptisms to conferences, small groups to fundraisers, you undoubtedly have dozens of topics that your church announcements cover. Below we’ll look at some of the most popular subjects and provide customizable templates you can use for your church events and opportunities.
We know that each church shares information in their own way, so feel free to edit our templates as much as you’d like. The goal is to make these announcements sound like something your church wrote, adjusting the text to match its unique voice and tone.

After you’ve made the initial announcements, you can then put together church announcement slides as a visual reminder for members and visitors. This communication channel reinforces your message and creates continual excitement around what’s happening. When creating your church announcement slides, take the following approach:
Churches depend on announcements to keep their congregation informed, engaged, and connected. We hope these church announcement templates save you from the hassle of writing something from scratch for every one of your upcoming events or new opportunities.
Another way that you can instantly communicate important announcements with your congregation is through the Subsplash Platform. Over 17,000 churches and organizations use Subsplash tools like group messaging, text messaging, push notifications, as well as email in order to keep everyone connected with what’s going on.
The best part is that these communication tools are integrated with your church’s website, mobile app, online giving, church management software, and much, much more!
