Nashville Religion Communicators Council Gets Digital
The Nashville Chapter of the Religion Communicators Council (RCC) meets monthly to talk about topics of interest and hear from professionals in religious communications.
- (1888PressRelease) October 18, 2018 - The ever-changing landscape of digital media can be difficult to navigate, especially for a person of faith trying to get a message of hope out to the world. So, a group of religious communications professionals gathered recently for their monthly meeting to learn more about storytelling in digital media.
The Religion Communicators Council (RCC) is an interfaith association of religion communicators at work in print and electronic communication, marketing and public relations.
Rev. Brian Fesler, president of the Nashville chapter and pastor of the Church of Scientology, says, “Religious people need to stay on top of the way messages are communicated in today’s world. Now, more than ever, we need hope highlighted on the social stream.”
The meeting took place at the Tennessee Conference of the United Methodist Church over lunch.
Sophia Agtarap of Vanderbilt Divinity School was the guest speaker for the day. Agtarap came to the Divinity School staff in 2017, having worked at the University of Washington and most recently The United Methodist Church's Communications Agency. Her graduate studies include Communication and Digital Media.
The RCC has members from every faith group and walk of life including Baha’is, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Scientologists, Sikhs, Hindus and more. The RCC, founded in 1929, is an association of communications professionals who work for and with a diverse group of faith-based organizations in the areas of communications, public relations, advertising and development. The RCC provides opportunities for communicators to learn from each other. Together, RCC members promote excellence in the communication of faith and values in the public arena and encourage understanding among religious and faith groups.
