the blog

Well, things have been busy at Rancho, both the church and the school.  In an attempt to keep everyone on the up and up, here’s some of the latest work that I’ve been doing:

This was a quick job for our Women’s Ministry – a screen graphic.

This was a super quick job for our High School Ministry – a quarter page flyer.

Retractable Banner design (original art designed by Tyson Morlet) – I did the layout and a little logo adjustment.

Another quick design for a banner for a missions focus. Rancho is “adopting” a project to bring the Bible in audio to the Palwano people of Southern Philippines. Read more at the Rancho Blog here: http://blog.ranchocommunity.org/2009/04/01/palawan-missions-project/

Standard commitment card – for the Palawan project.

The Pointe is Rancho’s college/young adult worship service on Sunday Nights. They needed a little identity branding, so we’re starting here. Very simple, but you’ll start to see how we use in over the next couple months.

Another banner – this one for the Temecula Murrieta Rescue Mission. An istock image takes care of the lighthouse theme – we’re going very graphic (leave out the logo) so it’s more timeless.

This is a 6′ x 8′ banner that will be placed in 2 locations at the entrances of Rancho. Real simple 55mph sign.

I’ve got a couple other iron’s in the fire that will probably be finished next week. Along with striight up designing, I’ve been super busy on the communications side of things, here’s a list of stuff that I’ve been working on:

• Launched Rancho’s official blog, check it out here & help promote it!
• Started the @ranchocommunity twitter (since then we’ve been slowly getting the Rancho staff on board)
• Took over the Rancho Community Facebook Group – hoping to build that up (have you joined?)
• Started a Facebook group for the Temecula Murrieta Rescue Mission – in less that 3 weeks it has almost 300 members! Hoping to pass this one off soon
• Started the @tmrescuemission twitter account – I plan on passing this one on to someone else too
• Started a Flickr account for Rancho & been trying to keep a study flow of photos going there
• Met with the school’s PTF (Parent Teacher Fellowship) for the first time – trying to learn how the school functions (it’s a daunting task!)

That’s about all I can think of now. I love my job. The people I get to work with are amazing. The church is doing some amazing things and I get the priviledge of doing my best to get the word out effectively and with style. Hope I can keep up!
