Newsletter Chi

(I mean chi - pronounced "chee" - like the energy source, like Tai Chi.)

Lots of you know.  Graciously, nobody's nagged or commented.  It's been a LONG time since I sent out a ministry newsletter email.  I've put it off.  I've done everything else on the list.  I've washed my sheets and vacuumed and taken walks and written cards to people.  But the time has come.

Those of us in the "biz" often lament the weird pressures of writing jolly newsletters to our various supporters.  Do we sound upbeat all the time?  Do we keep things real and gritty?  Do we have enough success stories?  Do we sound sufficiently busy?  Do people care?

I try to remind myself that people want to know how I am and what I've been doing.  They love me.  They want to know what my life is like.

Breathe in.  Wind up the computer.  The next engaging newsletter, coming right up.
