The inserts are each one half of an 8.5” by 11” black-and-white double-sided sheet of paper. The inserts are in PDF form so you will need to have the free Adobe Reader program installed on your computer to view and print the inserts.
To prepare the inserts for your Sunday bulletins, follow these steps:
- If you don’t already have Adobe Reader, click on the logo on this page to download and install it.
- Click on each Sunday’s insert to view it.
- After the insert opens, you can print it in the way you normally print from your computer. (If you have trouble printing, try clicking the printer icon on the Adobe toolbar to the right of the word “Save a Copy.”)
- Each Sunday’s insert comes two to a page and you will have two pages because the inserts are double-sided.
- Copy the inserts using the 1-side-to-2-side function on your copier.
- Cut the double-sided pages in half and insert into your bulletins.
You may want to use the text below in the announcements section of your bulletin to inform your congregation about the inserts:
You will find inserted into today’s bulletin a copy of “Grow in Understanding,” one of a series of informational pieces offered by the Episcopal Church’s Episcopal News Service to give Episcopalians a sense of how the upcoming 75th General Convention (June 13-21 in Columbus, Ohio) fits into the church’s mission, ministry and history.
