education is an extension of your care & Community.
Faith communities have always played a role in civic life. May Matters communications toolkit helps you share clear, nonpartisan information about the primaries in ways that respect the diversity of your congregation, align with your values, and protect your tax-exempt status.
Your mission comes first. This supports it.
May Matters is strictly nonpartisan. We don't support or oppose candidates, parties, or ballot measures — and neither will you by sharing our content. All materials are focused on participation, not persuasion, and designed to respect the diverse political perspectives within any congregation. Sharing nonpartisan civic information is widely recognized as consistent with the pastoral role — helping your community navigate important moments with clarity and confidence.
Protects your tax-exempt status
No candidate support, no advocacy, no ballot measure positions. Strictly participation-focused.
Respects your congregation's diversity
Content never tells people how to vote — only when and how to participate.
You decide what fits
Every element is optional and adaptable to your traditions and leadership style.
Start with what already reaches your congregation.
There's no required format or minimum commitment. Many faith communities start with a single bulletin announcement and build from there. Common approaches include:
- A voting reminder in your weekly bulletin or newsletter
- A brief announcement from the pulpit or during community gatherings
- A note in your email list or congregational communications
- A dedicated moment in a small group, class, or community meeting
- A post on your congregation's social media channels
You decide what fits your traditions and your community.
Everything is prepared for you.
The May Matters Faith Community Toolkit gives you what you need to share clearly and confidently without starting from scratch.
- Ready-to-use bulletin copy, email language, and announcement scripts
- Social media posts and graphics for your congregation's channels
- Plain-language explainers on Georgia primary voting timelines
- Key dates and a simple calendar of reminders
- Guidance on staying nonpartisan and appropriate for congregational use
No political endorsements. No issue advocacy. Just clear information your congregation will appreciate.
