For over 100 years, newspaper publishers have known that more than 60% of readers buy the paper mainly for the comics. Studies have shown that cancellation of comic strips results in decreased circulation, while the addition of a strong comic strip can increase circulation by over 20%.
In fact, the power of comics is beginning to be used by large corporations to market their products and offerings. Microsoft, Honda and Best Buy are but three of the latest companies turning to the comics as a way of reaching people. The March 2007 issue of Business 2.0 noted that the use of comic strips to build awareness is producing returns at twice the rate of other materials.
That's where
PRAYER PUPS SUNDAY FUNNIES can fit into your church's ministry and marketing plans.
As you probably already know,
PRAYER PUPS is a God-centered comic strip that teaches as well as it entertains. Our main characters look at life from a humorous point of view. And each comic strip leads to a Godly conclusion, a Bible lesson or a new way to understand and explore Scripture.
Each week, a selection of
PRAYER PUPS comic strips are collected into the
PRAYER PUPS SUNDAY FUNNIES. This easily-printable children's church bulletin is available to our member churches and organizations every Monday as a PDF file. This special PDF file is “editable” so that it allows you to add your church’s name and address on the front before you print, personalizing the comics to your church. This creates a great bulletin to offer children visiting your church or to use as a "leave behind" when visiting children in the hospital. They can also be distributed anywhere you want your church's name to be seen.
