In an effort to assist our ministry leaders, all submissions should be emailed to the bulletin editor, who will properly manage the requests, applying them to the bulletin, website, social media, and parish-wide e-mail where applicable. Please see below for more points of interest to help you submit your requests successfully. Any Saint Brigid ministry event must first be approved by the Pastor and on the parish calendar. (via a room reservation/ solicitation/ or speaker request form).
This applies to ALL meetings, events, or solicitations on or off-site, in-person or virtual.

Saint Brigid Bulletin Submission Guidelines
Saint Brigid uses multiple communication channels—bulletin, website, social media, and parish-wide emails—to share parish news and events. To ensure consistency and effectiveness:
- Submit all announcements via email to bulletin@saintbrigid.org by Friday, 5:00 PM, 16 days before the Sunday publication.
- Keep it brief: Include who, what, when, where, and why. Limit to 50 words.
- Photos are welcome (high-resolution, in focus, and follow safe environment guidelines). Canva users: add us to your team for resizing.
- Announcements run for 2 weeks unless extended by the parish secretary.
- “Save the Date” items go in the “Plan Ahead” section with full details online.
- Hyperlinks: Remove them from your email; the editor will reinsert them.
- QR codes are allowed.
- Flyers for wall racks must be trifolds, half-letter portrait, or 1/3 letter portrait. No full-page inserts (except for major parish events).
- All events must be approved by the Pastor and listed on the parish calendar.
All submissions are subject to editing by the Communications Department.
