Bulletin covers for Sunday
A bulletin is read at arm’s length, in a chair, often by someone who wants the order of service rather than a campaign. The cover should feel orderly: the day, the series or the season, and not much else. Fast Ministry Graphics treats it as a handout, not as an ad.

What a cover is for
Identify the Sunday and the tone. The inside of the bulletin still holds the liturgy, the announcements, and the offering. Do not try to fit those on the cover.
Export size
The default cover exports at 1152 × 1536 pixels (3:4). To print it as the Sunday handout, switch to Letter or A4. Legal is there if your insert is the taller US page.

Questions
Can it include the full order of service?
No. This makes the cover graphic. Set the order in your bulletin document and use this as the front.
