<p>Adeline,</p>
<p>Some comments ....</p>
<p>Is this new folder to be given to newcomers or everyone?</p>
<p>Under philosophy of inclusion. The language of the first two
sentences sound very ideological and academic. Can we find
words/expressions that the visitor/newcomer can relate too more
easily? Also, can we include in this section, the idea that we
welcome people with a wide variety of religious beliefs that
inspire them to live a moral life as expressed by our principles.
"Whatever beliefs are helpful to you in leading a moral life" are
words that have resonated with newcomers. You could even include
some examples within our congregation (Christians, atheists,
Buddhists, pagans, agnostics, Jewish, Sikh are some I know of). <br>
</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Darryl<br>

<br>
<br>
Today is your deadline to send corrections, suggested edits, etc.
for the new folder we hope to try this summer. I have done some
more work on the piece - reduced type size, added more info in
some areas, corrected some typos that we had noticed-- and in
general, I am happier with it. This is still a draft version; I
need additional staff photos (Tabatha, Lela, Becca, Emily (kind of
faked one of Emily-not very good) and good contact info for Becca
Immele to request her photo (or take one), and Kat's edit on the
Worship section. (I'm OK with the way the philosophy of inclusion
fits now.) When you've had a chance to review the piece, or review
this second draft, please respond with your edits.
<br>
<br>
Thanks,
<br>
<br>
Adeline
