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) –
