A Sign of the Times

For over two decades, Stewart Signs has been a proud partner with Lifeway as its sole provider of outdoor church signs through their OneSource program. With over 50,000 signs in the field, and over 3,700 Southern Baptist church customers, it is understandable why so many churches choose us as their preferred sign company. Pastor Glen Pearce of First Baptist Church in Iowa Park, TX talks about how our partnership helped his church.

During these trying times, we cannot afford to sit back and wait for things to return to normal. We must try to accept change and actively seek new ways to reach our community and keep them engaged. With VBS right around the corner, now is the perfect time to get your community excited for upcoming events.

In addition to being the easiest to use cloud-based software for LED signs, SignCommand has now surpassed another major milestone.

Unlike other "graphics packages", these messages are designed to work on any size or shape of LED display.

Want a more visually exciting sign? Do you need to make your organization's name or other sign details pop? Channel letter signs are the answer!

Together, we can adapt and overcome the challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic. During these unprecedented times, Stewart Signs would like to provide you with economic relief resources for your business. The Department of Treasury and Small Business Association have been actively working on COVID-19 relief options for our nation’s small business owners.

When you invest in a Stewart LED sign for your school, church, town, nonprofit organization or business, you receive the SignCommand software. This cloud-based program allows you to enter text and graphics to appear on your sign, and you can access SignCommand from any internet-connected device - including computers, tablets, and even your phone. Wondering about the best ways to use graphics on your sign?

We want to help our customers during this uncertain time. In addition to providing resources to help outdoor sign owners combat COVID-19, we are offering qualified organizations the option to defer their first sign payment for three months. Please speak with your sign consultant about this option, or contact us for more information.

OPEN APPLICATION PERIOD ANNOUNCEMENT: The Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response Grants (SAFER) Application Period will open on April 13, 2020 at 8:00am ET and close on May 27, 2020 at 5:00 pm ET. In 2018, Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) grants awarded $350 million to fire departments around the country. There is no limit on the amount of funding your fire department can receive, and you can use these funds to invest in a new sign to improve recruiting, retention, and more in your fire department.

Grants can be an excellent source of funding for a new school sign. They come in all shapes and sizes; some are to fund building improvements, assist with safety and protection, and purchase new supplies. Unlike fundraiser money, awarded grants are to be applied to specific projects.
