Pictures tell a thousand words and allow us to bring life to and help tell the story of First Christian Church. These images enhance the quality of the information we provide to our members and give visitors an idea of what to expect when they attend our church. Sharing photos and videos of our members is a privilege for us, and we intend to respect and honor it.

The church often photographs or records our various ministry activities, events and programs, creating media to use in church-produced materials, including, but not limited to, bulletins, posters, brochures, flyers, newsletters and other printed materials, social media sites and on the church website. Accordingly, participation in church activities implies permission for publication of any media recorded, unless a written “Opt-Out Request” has been made to the church office.

If you wish to opt-out, simply email the office with your request and the names of your immediate family members that you want to be included in the request. We understand that each family has its own online rules and we respect those family decisions.

• ANY ADULT MAY COMPLETE THE MEDIA OPT-OUT FORM IF THEY DO NOT WISH FOR MEDIA ITEMS IN WHICH THEY, VULNERABLE ADULTS IN THEIR CHARGE, OR THE MINOR CHILDREN FOR WHOM THEY ARE THE PARENT/LEGAL GUARDIAN ARE PROMINENTLY FEATURED TO BE USED IN PUBLICATIONS PRODUCED BY FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
• WE WILL NOT KNOWINGLY POST ANYTHING THAT WOULD BE EMBARRASSING, OBJECTIONABLE, OR HURTFUL TO ANYONE IN A PHOTO OR VIDEO.
• WE DO NOT IDENTIFY CHILDREN OR YOUTH BY NAME OR ANY OTHER IDENTIFYING INFORMATION IN THE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS WE USE IN OUR ONLINE AND PRINTED PUBLICATIONS. IF A NAME TAG IS VISIBLE IN A PHOTO, IT WILL BE REMOVED WITH PHOTO EDITING SOFTWARE.
• WE WILL GLADLY REMOVE ANY PHOTO OR VIDEO UPON REQUEST FROM OUR ONLINE SITES. IF YOU SEE A PHOTO THAT INCLUDES YOU OR YOUR CHILD AND WOULD LIKE IT REMOVED FROM THE SITE, PLEASE CALL THE CHURCH OFFICE OR SEND AN EMAIL WITH A LINK TO THE PHOTO IN QUESTION.
