As June rapidly comes to an end, we anticipate the warm summer that July and August may bring. With summer camps and vacations beginning and many of you heading to Charlotte for the Canadian/USA Assembly, we wish you all a wonderful time of fellowship and safe travels. In this issue you will find lots of information in regards to Pastor Salary guidelines. You will also have the chance to view some recommended reading by Sven and look through a sample adult lesson from Second Mile. If you have any questions or comments, please call 1-866-888- 6785 (888-6781 local) or email . Enjoy!

Thanks … Can you help us ensure that these items reach the right people? Thanks! Anita (Left) and Tammy (right) – Equipping Coordinators.

Trouble cutting & pasting from Acrobat PDF files? The newest version of Adobe Reader lets you select the exact amount of text you want, even from documents that contain columns (older versions of Reader selected text line by line across all columns – a process that would jumble text and challenge even the most patient user). Download the latest FREE version of Adobe Reader with this link.

  • To select text from a PDF document, choose the “I” beam Select Text tool from the Adobe Reader tool bar at the top of the screen, and highlight the text you want to copy from the document. Copy it. Then paste it into your bulletin or other document.
  • To select images from a PDF document, choose the "Select Image" tool from the Adobe Reader tool bar at the top of the screen, and highlight the image you want to copy from the document. Copy it. Then paste it into your bulletin or other document.
