Our ability to bulk ship Lutheran Digest copies free of charge to
participating Lutheran churches depends completely on the generosity of
businesses, local to those churches, that take spaces in our center
advertising inserts. If you have signed up your company for a space with one
of our sales agents (thank you!) but you did not provide our agent with text
and imaging for that space, this page provides you with guidelines on how to
structure the ad copy and instructions on where and how to send it.
Lutheran Digest ad spaces are either single column (1/2 page width) or
two column (full page width) and are available in 1/10th page increments up
to a full page. Live dimensions (the actual printed area) for each style are:
One Column Two Column
1/10th page 1.25” (h) x 2.31” (w) .63” (h) x 4.63” (w)
2/10th page 2.50” “ 1.25” “
3/10th page 3.75” “ 1.88” “
4/10th page 5.00” “ 2.50” “
5/10th page 6.25” “ 3.13” “

For ad rate information, please contact us. Ad spaces appear for one
(1) year and are distributed four (4) times on a quarterly basis. Spaces are
black and white only. Reverse print (black background with white lettering)
is available on request at no additional charge.
