How to make a Snapchat Geofilter for your Ministry Event


security risks and parents had every right to be skeptical about it. But Snapchat has changed over the years. Not only has it become more secure but it has become a huge opportunity for Churches to promote and share about what they are doing. Snapchat can be used for Churches to reach people? Yes it can. In fact, I have one particular friend who uses Snapchat every Sunday to share about Church to all her friends. She uses content cards and other geofilters to share each week. What are Snapchat Geofilters? Geofilters are images that you overlay on your snaps to send to people that share where you are at and what you are doing. Snapchat has a series of these geofilters no matter where you are at. However, there is a unique benefit to them for Churches. You can actually use them to promote your Church service or event. Snapchat has provided people and businesses to create these geofilters and the great thing is that they are relatively cheap. In fact, whenever our Church has created Geofilters for our events, I have spent less than $16 each time. It is a small amount to pay to get some exposure for teens and young adults to use. Plus, the more they use your geofilter, the more of their friends can hear about your Church or ministry for possibly the first time. See how you can create a Snapchat geofilter that is just right for your next ministry event.
