Subject: CIC Brochure
Wanted to take a moment to let you two know that I love the new Companions in Christ brochure.
I appreciate the copy direction you took, and the design layout flows very well.
I believe I will hear the same praises from our partner, but I wanted you to know just how much I like what you have done.
Good job.
Thanks,

You two have really blown my mind. I just opened the Upper Room Disciplines/Journeying brochure.
This is really good!
Love the images. Love the writing.
I am sending this to the partner and giving them your names in case they need freelancers.
Thanks so much for your fantastic work.

Subject: Disciplines Mailer
Just got the Disciplines mailer. Haven't looked at the whole thing yet, but I wanted you to know...
THE FRONT PANEL WORKS!
At first, I didn't know what it was and was intrigued enough by the "Your Soul's Calendar" headline to pick it up from my
mail pile and read.
Enjoy the weekend.

Subject: Ad in Wesleyan Theological Journal
I just saw the ad in the WTJ. I think it is wonderful! I like the fact that it is a full-page ad....that it is eye-grabbing....plus the
headline, “This is Textbook Wesley”. Please tell the ad people they did a super job!
Grace & Peace,
