About The Voice of Missions
Voice of Missions is a magazine produced by the Church Of God In Christ International World Missions Department. It serves as a yearly publication for subscribers, highlighting missions events, news updates, and on-the-ground stories from COGIC World Missions teams across the globe. The content comes directly from missionaries sharing first-hand experiences, giving readers a clear view of the current missions climate and the work being done in different regions.
The Challenge
The timeline was tight and the content was still moving. The magazine needed to be ready for distribution by November 2019, but articles continued coming in through October. Each story also had to be edited and approved by the Voice of Missions editor before it could be finalized. The challenge was keeping the layout consistent and polished while working through late submissions, ongoing edits, and approvals, all without delaying production.
The Goal
Create a print-ready magazine that followed the established tone of previous issues, while introducing a fresh, unique look that would appeal to the target audience and support a professional annual release.
The Deliverables
