Dear Corpus Canada Members:

The editorial board of The Journal has asked me to email you about a feature they would like to see revived, namely, a profile in each issue of a person, a couple, or persons of interest to Corpus members. This was done sporadically in the past, but it dropped off, and the board feels it could once again be an interesting and informative feature of The Journal. The profile could be of people in Corpus Canada, such as Francois Brassard and Connie Kurtenbach, or people who have affected Corpus Canada, such as Anthony Padovano and Joan Chittister.

Any member of Corpus could write the article of about 500 words, and email it directly to the editor, Chris Diamond  and the publisher Michael Irving , preferably in "rich text format" (rtf), though other formats are acceptable. The usual deadlines for articles, as noted on page 2 of every issue of The Journal, should be observed.

It is suggested you contact the individuals you write about, and get or verify some basic information about them and their lives. A photograph, which you might get from the subjects, could accompany the article. You might also want to suggest subjects for a profile, about whom someone else could write.

The editorial board may draw up a list of suggested people for profiles, and ask others to write about them.

Please give this topic some serious thought, and take part in what could be an attractive and regular feature of The Journal.

Yours in Christ,

Jim Noonan, Facilitator
Corpus Canada, National Coordinating Team
