The policy for use and production of ministry-like materials by other persons or entities is outline in this section. This applies to issues such as the use of the ministry logo and symbols on merchandise or materials produced by others.
Sponsoring parishes/congregations have permission to use the ministry logo and symbols as part of their promoting and presenting the programs within their church. Promotional items are bulletins and advertisements as well as a parish/congregation website. In presenting the programs, the logo and symbols may be used on items like Weekend mementos and on rosters. Any other use of the logo or symbols requires written permission from the Family Life Office of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe. In addition, the logo and symbols must not be used, in whole or in part, for any purpose other than for this ministry. No other logos or symbols are to be used. (please see Logos and Symbols)
As noted in the preceding section, some sponsoring parishes/congregations desire to produce or obtain special items for their program promotions and presentations. Such items are usually promotional materials (e.g., handouts, bulletins), "mementos" for Weekends, and websites. The ministry encourages the use of these items and, as noted in the previous section, approves the use of the ministry logo and symbols with these items.
For other materials and items, prior permission must be obtained from the Family Life Office of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe in writing. The requests must be sent to the Family Life Office several months before a proposed action so that the Board has sufficient time to evaluate and respond to the request. An additional requirement, is that these items (including the merchandise and other sale-like items described in the following section) can only be used within the sponsoring parish/congregation, and not beyond.
Merchandise (and other sale) items that a sponsor may wish to produce for their use with the ministry logo and/or symbols are examples of items where prior permission must be obtained.
