Email Templates In the following pages, you'll find several key emails that you may want to send out at different stages of your recruitment campaign. These emails are pre-written for you to save you time and to give you a starting point. Before you send them, I encourage you to read them out loud and make sure they "sound" like you. If not, be sure to add your tone and details specific to your church. Notice the highlighted areas. This is where you will need to insert specific details unique to your church. PRO-TIP: PERSONALIZE YOUR EMAILS A recent study found that people open personalized emails 29% more than they open emails that aren’t personalized. Simply add your recipient’s name in the subject line and the body of your email. It’s simple, but so powerful. Now your email has a much higher chance of standing out. If you send the same email to everyone, your recipient will feel like a nameless, faceless number on your email list. But, if you include their name, it will instantly stand out to them. As Dale Carnegie, a well-known expert on the art of persuasion best put it, “A person’s name is to that person, the sweetest, most important sound in any language.” 22
Recruitment Letter Email SUBJECT OPTION #1: Who wants to play? SUBJECT OPTION #2: Let's play a game! Hi, POTENTIAL VOLUNTEER'S FIRST NAME, Remember family game nights every week when you were a kid? Yeah, neither do I, but I do remember playing board games with my family from time to time and it was always a good time. BRIEFLY SHARE A FUN MEMORY OF YOUR FAMILY PLAYING A BOARD GAME Speaking of board games... Did you catch my announcement where I compared our children's ministry to the game of <strong>Trouble</strong>? (If not, you can watch it >> HERE. It's only 3 minutes long.) Our world today is like a giant game of <strong>Trouble</strong> — with dangerous temptations and threats around every corner. Just like players in the game, we're all just trying to make it safely to the finish line but our journey is full of unexpected twists and turns. This journey is especially challenging for our kids. That's why I invite you to get in the game and help our boys and girls reach Jesus, and find safety in a life-long relationship with Him. As a children's ministry volunteer, you'll have the incredible opportunity of loving on kids and making God's love real to them. You'll serve as a role model, a faith mentor, and a cheerleader helping children grow stronger in their faith. My team and I make volunteering easy and fun. We’ll provide you with all the training and materials needed to be successful, and our opportunities are flexible and rewarding. In as little as 80 minutes a week, you can play a big role in our children's lives by being a friend and helping them see how great and wonderful our God is. I encourage you to become a volunteer for this school year. I do not doubt that it will be a fun and rewarding experience for you. If you’d like more information about different roles available in the children's ministry, please click >> HERE. Hit reply if you have any questions. Thanks for your consideration!
