At Church Communications Group, we understand the profound responsibility of sharing this story in a way that resonates in today’s digital age. Founded in 2015 by Katie Allred and Darrel Girardier as a passion project, our journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to create a space where church communicators could find the support, resources, and inspiration needed to navigate the complexities of modern communication. Today, we stand as a beacon for those dedicated to elevating their church’s message.

Our Mission and Core Values

Our mission is to equip churches with the best communication practices, bridging the gap between time-honored traditions and the forefront of communication technology. We strive to empower and educate church communicators, ensuring they have the tools and strategies needed for clear, impactful communication.

Our Vision

Our vision is ambitious: to become the global standard for church communication excellence, impacting 1 million churches by 2030. As we grow, our annual conference each fall, certification programs, and dynamic resources continue to evolve, reflecting the needs and aspirations of our community.
