"We need the sign because our church has too many
events going on to advertise with banners, as the City is becoming more strict
on its sign ordinances."
SignVine will announce this week a new
campaign for Saint Mark United Methodist Church, located in Birmingham, AL, and
will urge all those interested in supporting this effort to visit the
SignVine.org website, watch their video, and make a donation...but more
importantly, share it with everyone. The campaign should be live by the end of
this week on the signvine.org website.
“The church offers an outstanding
Vacation Bible School, music ministries, drama, Bible lessons and crafts, and
seasonal programs for preschool through elementary ages. Our nursery workers
are known for their smiles and loving attention to the little ones,” Ron Gonia,
a Senior Pastor, said.
Currently, the church has so many
activities and so many events that trying to produce and string up a series of
outside banners to communicate with the congregation is impossible. Also, the
city has tightened up on their sign regulations trying to improve the
appearance of the community by disallowing free-standing banners.
Saint Mark UMC has been at its
Columbiana Road address for over 50 years that has served as a base for
operations that are far-reaching.
SignVine is pleased to be of service to
Saint Mark UMC and happy that they selected SignVine to help fund their
campaign for a new LED message sign, and with a local grassroots effort to
encourage their congregation and community to become involved, they will
succeed.
Total project cost is over $47,000
which makes this a substantial campaign and they will have to stay focused, but
the effectiveness and efficiency of their new LED sign will make life easier
and more productive for them and their community.
This comprehensive sign project
features a 3’x6', double-sided, full-color, remotely programmed LED sign
installed in a monument along with the traditional Saint Mark United Methodist
Church sign graphic, permitting, and installation. It is a handsome project
that will contribute not only to the management and operation of the church but
also to its branding and perception within the community.
“Saint
Mark United Methodist is located on a heavily trafficked road right outside
Birmingham, AL” Justin Holland, Vice
President of Sales for the sign builder, Complete Signs, said, “They serve a
large community and are trying to share their love and hope with as many people
as possible.”
Holland
continued, “By incorporating a digital message center into their new monument
sign, they are excited to see how much more effective their communication will
become with both their congregation and the entire community.”
