The Nashville Chapter of
the Religion Communicators Council (RCC) meets monthly to talk about topics of
interest and hear from professionals in religious communications.
The Religion Communicators
Council (RCC) is an interfaith association of religion communicators at work in
print and electronic communication, marketing and public relations. The
Nashville Chapter meets monthly at rotating locations to learn about other
faith traditions, learn from fellow communicators and gain professional
development opportunities.
The October meeting was held at
the Sri Ganesha Hindu Temple, where RCC members received a tour and heard about
the practices of Hinduism and were even able to observe worship services in the
sanctuary. In November, the Nashville RCC chapter plans to visit Glencliff
United Methodist Church, where parishioners are involved in a tiny homes project
to help the homeless community.
Just over two years ago, Mayor David Briley
joined Glencliff United Methodist Church and Open Table Nashville for the
groundbreaking of the tiny home village which would help the least of these have
a transitional place to live to break the cycle of homelessness. Now, RCC
members are looking forward to seeing the progress that has been made in the
Glencliff community.
“We are so excited to visit the church and
see all that they are doing for the community,” says Julie Brinker,
Communications Coordinator for the Nashville RCC and Director of Community
Affairs for the Church of Scientology Nashville.
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. For more information about the Religion Communicators
