2013 ACPE Sowing Seeds for Our Holy Work
Annual Campaign
|
Who Is Your Champion?
By Miriam Needham, Annual Campaign Chair

Well, believe it or not, you have one. In fact your Champion is someone that you know. So who is this person who has taken on the awesome task of championing you and your region? Some of you probably already know their name and perhaps you know that your Champion is the person in your region who will 'champion' the cause of our Annual Campaign, Sowing Seeds for our Holy Work, 2013. So while your Champion may need little introduction, I know that many of us are not fully acquainted with the task that she/he has taken on and that many of us may not fully understand the purpose of our ACPE Annual Campaign.

National Office Implements New Phone System
|
The ACPE national office implemented a new automated phone system this month. The recordings are another resource for our students/potential students and members to find answers to the most frequently asked questions. It should also allow callers to more efficiently find the appropriate staff member. The national office staff hopes the new system is informative and user-friendly. They also hope it allows them to focus more time on larger, more complicated tasks and projects. Please send your feedback to John Roch - we would love to hear from you!
