Requests of Two Items for Newsline, Our Email News Service

1. I am planning another Newsline update on tsunami giving across the denomination. If there are giving efforts related to the tsunami in your district that we have not yet reported, could you send that information to me or let me know who to talk with in your district? Also, if you have updates on any figures for giving in your district to date, I'd appreciate receiving those as well. If you could get that information to me within the next week, that would be great.
   
2. I would like to report on each district conference in Newsline this year. Could you make sure to send in a report following your district conference, or assign a leader in your district to write such a report? The length should be kept to one page, single spaced. The focus of the report may be on new leadership chosen at district conference, new initiatives in the district, district budget, any other important business, and special events that take place at the conference such as worship, auctions, etc.

Thank you so much. If you have any questions or concerns about these two requests, please be in touch with me.

With best wishes, in Christ
