- RUMORS OF ACMC'S DEATH ARE EXAGGERATED -- Thanks to your prayers and
encouragement, the ACMC ministry is alive and well! ACMC is about
Advancing Churches in Missions Commitment. Pass the word! Conferences
are scheduled in November in Baltimore, MD and Easton, MA. Online
registration and downloadable conference brochures are available on the
new website. Find ACMC at:
http://www.acmc.org
or email
info(at)acmc(dot)org or by phone in the US at 1-800-755-7284 or outside
the US at 1-407-382-6000. [As a means of preventing spam for our
contributors, in the preceding email address(es), please replace (at)
with @ and (dot) with .]
- SCHOLARSHIPS FOR THOSE THAT SERVE IN THE GULF COAST-USA -- Delta
Ministries International (DMI) invite churches and individuals to serve
in the Gulf Coast-USA. You can apply for partial grants and
scholarships, which could reduce the amount you have to raise. For more
info contact: Tim Randall, USA Phone: 1-570-242-8503 (others dial 001-
1570-242-8503), Email:

The ongoing plea of Gulf Coast residents continues-"Don't forget us."
The needs are still great!
- WEB EVANGELISM IN JAPAN -- There is a big lack of online outreach for
Japan, yet the opportunities are huge. Internet Evangelism Day has
created a page highlighting this dramatic need, and sharing some of what
is already happening:

(Thanks Tony!)
- HOW TO MOVE FROM MAINTENANCE TO MAXIMUM IN MISSIONS -- Kingfisher is
an interdenominational missions mobilising organization in South Africa,
mobilising local churches to get involved with wholistic missions. They
are looking for any tool usable to mobilise members from a local church
to move from maintenance towards missions. They are especially looking
for workshops or seminars that will help the church grow develop into a
missional existence. Got a mobilization tool you can reference at a
website or public address/phone? Post it by creating a comment at:
http://brigada.org/brigade/?p=29
Got a comment that can't be posted openly on the web? Then just email it
to:
jtheron(at)xsinet(dot)co(dot)za [As a means of preventing spam for our
contributors, in the preceding email address(es), please replace (at)
with @ and (dot) with .], the original requester of this information.
Stop back to the website often to check for updates.
- CLOSING STUFF --
SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION -- Important! Please don't just hit "reply".
Subscriptions are automated. First, you need to determine the mailing
source of your individual copy of Brigada Today. We're now sending them
from 2 sources. To find out, just look at the "From:" address of your
last edition. The domain will tell the tale. Here's how to do it:
If your Brigadas come via YahooGroups:
To unsubscribe, write to brigada-today-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com
To subscribe, write to brigada-today-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
If your Brigadas come via GoogleGroups:
To unsubscribe, write to brigada-today-unsubscribe@googlegroups.com
To subscribe, write to brigada-today-subscribe@googlegroups.com
To change your address, you must unsubscribe using your old address
then subscribe anew using your new service. If you are receiving this
email via some "alias" that you'd like to unsubscribe, try putting that
alias email address in the "From:" box of your email client
temporarily, then send the unsubscribe message (mentioned above). It'll
probably "spoof" the server into unsubscribing that old
address. Then just change your "From:" box back to your new address.
TO SUBMIT AN ITEM -- We love to feature your news & resources! To find
out how, read our submission guidelines on the web at:
http://www.brigada.org/submissions.html
TO LEARN MORE -- Interested in learning more about Brigada? Read our
site at:
http://www.brigada.org
and you'll learn the who, what, when, why and where of Brigada. By the
way, we no longer provide server-sent files via email-activated
commands. Just read all about us on the web!
NEED SUBSCRIPTION HELP? -- If you're a sponsor, you can now write to
help(at)brigada(dot)org [replace (at) with @ and (dot) with .] and get a
real human response. For information about becoming a sponsor, log on
at:
http://www.brigada.org
and click on "Sponsor" in the top line menu. Note that due to the large
number of subscribers (literally thousands) only sponsors get human
help.
DISCLAIMER -- We can't screen 'em all. Please forgive us if a
particular site contains offensive information -- or no information at
all! We *try* to visit them in advance, but often write "on the road"
so we simply *can't* preview everything.
PLEASE DON'T SUBSCRIBE US TO YOUR LIST -- Sorry -- nothing personal --
but we're already deluged. We'll eventually teach our spam filter to
just delete it anyway, but in the meantime, we'll have a sad face
because of the volume of mass mailings we receive. :-(
WARNING ABOUT FORWARDING EMAILS -- Just say no! :-) Read our thoughts
about forwarding emails at
http://www.brigada.org/articles/opc.html
WHY DO WE SAY, "[replace (at) with @ and (dot) with .]"? -- More and
more shady marketing types ("spammers" and "scammers") are using
computerized searches to harvest email addresses from off the web
without asking permission of the owner. We use this "plain English"
addressing syntax to avert automated harvesting for our contributors.
PRIVACY INFORMATION -- We will never give your information to anybody.
We won't market you, won't hassle you, and won't ever bother you. You
won't be signed up for mailings you didn't request. Your address is safe
and your future is secure. Life is good. :-)
