Sacred Heart Parish now has an Instagram account. You might be thinking, we already have a Facebook account – why do we need to be on Instagram too? Instagram is the second largest social media channel and is an excellent tool for reaching and engaging youth and young adults. 75% of Instagram users are 35 years of age or younger. This is the group we need to evangelize to as a parish. They are the future of our parish and our faith.
Instagram is a very visual platform as it is built around images and videos. It also uses a lot of hashtags. All of the Sacred Heart posts going forward will include our parish hashtag of #sacredheartgi. If you are on Instagram, please follow the parish at shgicatholic. Your children and grandchildren most likely have an Instagram account – please ask them to follow us. The content will always be positive, faith-based, and designed to help build a strong relationship with God.
If you don’t have an Instagram account, you can easily download the app and get started. If you need help, please feel free to reach out to me at church or email me at [email protected]. I’d be happy to help you get started.
