Does your ministry currently provide its own prayer letter service? Would you like to free up your internal resources to focus on building into your missionaries?
By working with prayerletters.com, your ministry can discover the freedom of being able to outsource the printing and mailing of prayer letters to a team of experts dedicated to serving missionaries and familiar with the unique communication needs of people in ministry.
It's our goal to remove some of the administrative hurdles to doing ministry, such as printing letters and envelopes, folding, stuffing, and mailing them. These are tasks that can be done by others so that missionaries can focus on their ministry.
If you work in a ministry's home office, you already know how helpful it is for your missionaries to have people at home taking care of the administrative details that are associated with ministry. We would like to give you more opportunity to use your resources to build into your missionaries while we take care of the printing and mailing of their letters and updates.
We have been printing and mailing prayer letters for over ten years, with a continual focus on improving our processes to be ever more reliable, efficient, and cost-effective.
Reliable
All of our equipment has a backup, all of the backups are different models, and nearly everything is covered by a service contract. If one of our machines fail, or if a particular file doesn't print properly, we can move it to its pair and keep going. Service contracts mean we have someone to call when there's a problem, and can stay focused on your letters. And we regularly alternate between primary and backup equipment to ensure everything is functioning well.
If your mailing equipment has ever caused a delay in the ability of missionaries to communicate with their prayer and financial partners, you might consider partnering with us.
Efficient
We've written our own software to handle the unique requirements of missionaries when it comes to printing and mailing, and update it regularly. For instance, we can import mailing lists in a variety of formats with just a couple of clicks, and our workflow is baked into the software to ensure that no steps get missed, and everything related to a missionary's order stays together.
If your missionaries have ever had to wait more than two days for their letters to be sent, even during the busy end-of-year mailing season, you might consider partnering with us.
Cost-Effective
Because our print and mail shop is built around serving missionaries, and because we're constantly working on improving its efficiency, we can provide reliable, high-quality, and fast service without charging premium prices. In fact, many missionaries have told us that we charge them less than they were paying when they sent the letters themselves.
If your administrative costs include maintaining or replacing mailing equipment, and you have dedicated staff to prepare and send prayer letters, you might consider partnering with us.
Let's Work Together
Because each ministry has its own approach to how they currently handle prayer letters, we invite you to contact us and tell us a bit about how your process currently works.
We will then work with you to create an arrangement that allows your missionaries to continue to send their prayer letters with minimal disruption. We can provide billing data in a way that's customized for easy import into your ministry's financial system.
Depending on your needs, we are also able to modify our software to suit any unique requirements your ministry might have. This can't generally be done immediately, so we will seek to create a staged approach that will allow you to see immediate benefits while we work on a long-term feature set.
If you would like to free up your ministry's administrative staff and resources to focus more on supporting your missionaries in the field, we invite you to get in touch.
