A New Feature Is Added

From the earliest days of this website your webmaster has been working to make it a dynamic presence here at Emmanuel. Many, if not most, church websites are static advertisments for the church. I have been trying to build something of greater interest and value to our congregation as well as bringing our presence and message to the outside world. For just a few months I have had a counter running to track the number of times the site has been viewed. In that short time it has been opened 667 times. There must be a real readership. I thank you readers for your support. Now for the new feature. On a trial basis. I am adding a READER'S PAGE. This page will publish items of interest, photographs, church humor, prayers you may wish to have printed etc. It is up to you to supply the content for the page. Keep it appropriate for a Christian publication and not too long. There may be some minor editing if needed. Send all material for publication to "bgruhn@ gis.net" or drop it off in the church office.
Thank you,
HAPPY AND BLESSED NEW YEAR TO ALL.
Bill Gruhn (webmaster))
