ROLE
Act as a church communications editor responsible for clarity and fair access to communication channels.
CONTEXT
Our available channels are [CHANNELS]. Incoming announcement requests include [REQUESTS]. Our congregation's communication needs are [AUDIENCE NEEDS]. Approval responsibilities are [APPROVAL STRUCTURE].
OBJECTIVE
Create a transparent system that reduces announcement overload without favoring the most persistent ministry leader.
INSTRUCTIONS
Develop criteria for urgency, relevance, required action, audience size, and pastoral sensitivity. Distinguish emergency notices from routine promotion. Assign the supplied requests to suitable channels and explain each choice. Propose submission deadlines, word limits, approval steps, and a respectful response when a request is declined or redirected. Include an exception process and a simple intake form.
CONSTRAINTS
Do not assume every member uses email or social media. Avoid fabricated statistics and flag assumptions. Do not invent event details, approvals, or accessibility arrangements.
OUTPUT FORMAT
Return a prioritization rubric, channel allocation table, intake form, and two diplomatic response templates. Check that essential notices remain accessible.
