by | Jun 18, 2025 | Blog, Tent App Resource Hub

As a church communicator, you know how vital social media is for sharing God’s story, telling your church’s story, and connecting with your community. But let’s be honest—consistently creating fresh, meaningful posts can feel overwhelming, especially with everything else on your plate each week.

That’s why Tent Apps has designed a special Canva template featuring 20 social media posts for your church to use  this summer! Inside, you’ll find a variety of post types—from words of encouragement and sermon quotes to volunteer spotlights and more. Plus, 12 of these posts are fully customizable, so you can tailor them to reflect your church’s unique vision, style, and message. And if you just need something quick and ready-made, we’ve got you covered there too!

Maybe you are new to Canva or just a little unsure how to go about customizing these posts. Let us walk you through each one!  

Make the most of summer! Pin this post to the top of your Instagram or Facebook profile for a quick reference to summer events. Perfect for both church members and newcomers. Update it monthly or adjust the font to fit the entire summer schedule!


 

Highlighting your volunteers or staff team is a great way to show the world what your church is all about. It also honors your people well. Grab a snap of a volunteer or staffer in action on a Sunday, grab a quote from him or her, and you have a GREAT post. Consider making it a regular feature.


Want to show the world what your church is all about and honor your incredible team? Highlight your volunteers and staff! Capture a photo of them in action on a Sunday, add a meaningful quote, and you’ve got a fantastic post. Make it a regular feature to celebrate the heart of your church.


Easily inspire your social media audience with Scripture posts! Highlight a key verse from the latest sermon and pair it with a beautiful background from Canva. It’s quick and impactful. Pro tip: Resize the post to 1080 x 1920 and share it as a story. Your followers will love having an uplifting lock screen!


Don’t forget to remind your audience that your sermons are available on YouTube! With summer travels in full swing, many people may need to catch up on a missed message. Grab a photo of your pastor teaching, swap it into the template, and include your YouTube link in the caption. Make it easy for your community to stay connected, no matter where they are!


Share your Sunday song list! Whether you post it before or after the service, it’s a great way to engage your congregation with the music they love. Make it a regular feature and add a personal touch by using a photo of your sanctuary or auditorium in the graphic.


Bring your church’s values to life on social media! What core beliefs or common phrases define your community? Capture authentic moments throughout your building on a Sunday (an iPhone works great!) and use those images to create compelling posts that showcase your values in action.


Make a visual impact and invite newcomers by promoting your upcoming Sunday service. Capture genuine smiles from your greeters inside and outside your building. Keep it simple—let the photos convey your warm welcome, and use the caption to extend the invitation.


Maximize the reach and impact of your message with a carousel post featuring key scriptures from Sunday morning. Simply duplicate the scripture slide as many times as needed and add your verses. The beauty of carousels is that they may be shown to the same user multiple times, with different slides appearing in their feed, increasing the chances of your message being seen and resonating.  You can also use this same graphic set and change the topic…”Scriptures to pray when you are worried” or Verses to help you when you are fearful” etc…


Simple and eye-catching. Sub in a shot of your building or the inside of your sanctuary, and caption it:
“…or at least we’d really love it if you were!  Join us tomorrow at 9:30am for worship, teaching and connection!”
