The Parish Paper
What is The Parish Paper?
The Parish Paper is a monthly publication for congregations giving "Ideas and Insights for Active Congregations," to which the Diocese subscribes. The issues (two pages each) are listed by date and are posted as they are published and delivered to us.
Congregations may download the Parish Paper (it's free!) — see the list of Issues and Topics, to the right. Distribute them as suits your purposes — perhaps to Vestry/Bishop's Committee members or to particular groups in your church. Please note the copyright restrictions. Permissions and Restrictions
Our organization’s purchase of photocopy rights for The Parish Paper includes:
1. Permission to provide copies to our staff and the congregations within our constituency in any of the following ways: e-mail, U.S. Mail, newspaper, newsletter, meetings, training events, and the diocese's website. 2. Permission for each congregation within our constituency to (a) photocopy or electronically distribute for local use as many copies as it needs, (b) post them on its Website, and (c) quote sentences and paragraphs. Your congregation does NOT have permission (a) to delete the copyright notice on page 2; (b) to re-write, paraphrase, or change the wording of sentences and paragraphs; or (c) to give ANY THIRD PARTY—other than your staff and constituents—permission to photocopy or reprint (in any quantity, no matter how small, whether for free distribution or for sale). If your congregation uses a U.S. Post Office Nonprofit Mailing Permit to distribute photocopies with its newsletter or other mailings, most local Post Offices require that every item carry your congregation’s name and address. Above The Parish Paper masthead, type your congregation’s name, address, and “Photocopied by Permission.” |
