2005 National Convention Bulletin Announcement

John & Ann Geer

Dear WWME Family:

Registrations for the WWME Convention 2005 continue to be made through the online and paper process and we greatly appreciate your efforts to publicize the Convention and its theme of "In God We Trust".

Please continue your efforts to spread the good news of the Convention as broadly as possible. We want this convention to follow in the tradition of Atlanta and DeKalb and be life renewing to the sacraments who attend -- and we want to maximize the number of people touched by the great presentations, the opportunity to meet and greet old friends, and to be enriched.

A couple of reminders;

- the price for registration (for both the Convention and Priest Day) increases on March 16th by $10 a couple and $5.00 a priest/widow(er);

- the Children's Convention will be limited to 300 children -- so early registration is encouraged.

Father Doug Reed, the ecclesial priest for Section Four, suggested that access to parish bulletins be used to spread the good news of the Convention, and drafted the following possible insert.

We ask that you send the bulletin announcement to your parish with the request that they publish the announcement in your parish bulletin (and also to ensure that all active members of your local community are advised of the Convention):

The Worldwide Marriage Encounter community joyfully announces a Family Convention to be held at Towson University - near Baltimore, Maryland - July 8 - 10, 2005. The Convention will include a separate program on Saturday for children. Our theme is “In God We Trust” and our goal is to continue our journey of renewal, first of God’s people and then, through them, of God’s church. Ultimately, our dream is to change the world one relationship at a time. The Convention will be presented in English, Korean and Spanish. To register: Please go to http://convention.wwme.org/ and choose between the online and the paper registration process. The Convention Weekend will be preceded by a Priest Day program on Friday July 8th. Reduced registration fees are in effect through March 15th.

Thanks for your assistance in making this Convention exceptionally well attended -- the Convention Committee is doing its best to make it the best Convention ever.

Love,
John & Ann Geer
