SA Uniting Church, uniting people
The South Australian Uniting Church is revamping its image!
Their new slogan is: Uniting Church, uniting people.
I love it! There are so many things you can do with a slogan like that. It’s short and to the point but endlessly meaningful.
Check out their new website here: http://www.unitingpeople.org.au/home
They have also made a new TV ad. It is pretty powerful stuff!
