The Lutheran Mega Synod Edition will be out soon!
It's been a marathon!
But this morning, finally, at around 1.30, our little team at The Lutheran staggered across the finish line. The 80-page full-colour mega edition, covering all the major General Convention events, reports and resolutions, is now at Openbook Howden, printers.
Most, if not all of you, will be subscribers to The Lutheran, so you'll be receiving your mega edition in your mailbox in about two weeks.
We are also printing sufficient copies of The Synod Edition to make available to every Lutheran household. These will be sent in bundles to congregations. Since we don't want to give you more copies than you need and we don't want to spend more money on postage than we need to, please update on LAMP the number of copies you require - on the basis of one copy per household.
From this number we will deduct the number of subscribers in your congregation, so there is no wastage.
Please do that this week, ie by Friday, 24 May, as we'll be bundling up the packages next week.
If you are unsure how to enter this information, Assistant to the President, Larissa Helbig, has kindly provided these instructions:
1. Log on to LAMP.
2. Click on the blue edit to the right of your congregation’s name on the first page that opens.
3, On the congregation page that opens, hover your mouse over 'Congregation Details' (in the centre top of the page highlighted with a white background) and click on 'Stats and Publications' on the menu that appears.
4, Scroll down to the Publications section of the page.
5. On the line that says ‘Publications/Brochures for all families’ click on the blue ‘add’ (if the amount is zero) or red ‘edit’ (if you already had an amount entered) on the far right of the page.
6. In the box the opens, put in the amount of publications you require in the ‘Quantity’ box, or adjust the number as needed if editing. Click on submit to save the change.
7. You should automatically be taken back to the ‘Stats and Publications’ page where you will see your new Publications/Brochures for all families amount displayed.
