Volume 7 No. 2

This is my sixth issue of the Spirit magazine and includes my penultimate changes to the design which I started with the February issue. It has a simplified inside front cover page and I’ve removed the events listing. We already have a two-weekly online mailing, and our website to promote events. Anyway, the event list was often out of date by the time this magazine was issued. Instead, I used the space to add a complete list of churches and their contact details. This change is intended to give the Spirit a longer shelf life and create a resource that churches can hand out to visitors.

I have a couple of remaining design changes I want to include this year to complete my goal of consistent branding across our print and online media. However, they involve changing colors – so I will have to run some tests and get proofs printed, which is a pain with the printer being 180 miles away in Kansas City.

My contribution to this issue included the following. Editor, design, layout, editorial (page 3), photographs: cover, pages 4, 5, 9 and 18. Photo enhancement & edit: pages 11, 12 and 13.
