New Publication (Seek)

The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri

The Diocese wanted to replace its tabloid newspaper, Interim, with a magazine-style publication to both elevate its image and serve as a unifying force for the people and congregations of the Diocese. fister generated publication name and design concepts, with Seek being the approved name. It is a bi-annual publication to all parishes (and congregations) throughout the Diocese.

One way to showcase the new visual identity is to create and produce a new publication. Like the logo, the Diocese wanted congregation buyin. fister facilitated two focus groups of various diocese members to arrive at the winning name.

Seek is a name with many Biblical references, such as Matthew 7:7, “Seek and you shall find.” Comments from the research included: “it is a call to action, but connects with the reader on a very personal level...it is intriguing and begs the question regarding what is being sought.” Seek features stories from around the Diocese and the greater Communion to support mission and evangelism.

With the approval of the name and design, fister provided layout of the entire publication, managing the printing through distribution.
