What to include in a church bulletin
A complete Sunday bulletin typically includes: the church name and date at the top; the full order of worship — opening prayer, scripture readings, hymns, sermon title and text, offering, and closing; a section for announcements and upcoming events; contact and giving information; and an optional prayer list or weekly scripture. You can add or remove any section to fit your service style.
Why use an online template instead of Microsoft Publisher
Microsoft Publisher is retiring in October 2026. This online editor works the same way — click to edit text, drag to reposition elements — without requiring a software install or a Publisher license. Your work is saved in your browser account, so next Sunday you open it, update the date and sermon, and export a fresh PDF in minutes.
Can I reuse the same bulletin template every week?
Yes. Duplicate your bulletin project at the start of each week, update the date, sermon title, scripture reference, and announcements, then export a new PDF. Many churches save 20–30 minutes per week compared to starting from scratch or fighting a Publisher file.

Frequently asked questions
What is a church bulletin template?+
A church bulletin template is a pre-designed layout you customize online. It includes sections for the order of worship, sermon title, scripture, announcements, and contact info — all editable in your browser and exportable as a print-ready PDF.
Can I reuse the same bulletin every week?+
Yes. Duplicate your project at the start of each week, update the date, sermon, and content, and export a fresh PDF. Most churches complete the weekly update in 10–15 minutes.
Do these work for any denomination?+
Yes. The wording is intentionally neutral and fully editable. Adjust section headings, order of service labels, and language to suit any Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, or non-denominational style.
What size does the bulletin print at?+
Most church bulletin templates are Letter size (8.5×11 in), single or double-sided. Half-sheet formats (5.5×8.5 in) are also available — fold a Letter sheet in half for a classic four-panel bulletin.
Can I add photos or a church logo?+
Yes. Upload your church logo to the logo zone and add any photos to image placeholders in the template. Use the image tool to reposition and resize images.
Is there a cost to export the PDF?+
You can edit the entire bulletin for free. Export options and any applicable cost are shown before you download — there is no surprise paywall after you have finished your bulletin.
