The Bridge
"The Bridge" is a monthly
congregational bulletin/newsletter insert from the Southeastern Minnesota
Synod office.
The issues are designed to be used
anytime within three years of when they are released (unless stated
otherwise). Each issue is available in both a portrait, full-page layout,
and a landscape, half-sheet layout.
Using "The Bridge" in your congregation's
newsletter or bulletin will help your congregation members understand what
the synod does, the ministry of the larger church, and how they can be more active in the church.
Download tips:
1. To open the PDF (Adobe Acrobat) format
files, you must download and install the Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Get it free from
www.adobe.com.
2. To use the Tiff (graphic) format
files, save the file to disk (do not attempt to open it in your browser
window - it probably won't work). Then go into your desktop publishing
program and select Insert -> Picture -> From file (Word and Publisher -
other programs may have a different method to do this) and choose the
saved Tiff file. These files are optimized at a high-quality print
resolution.
