Our UGM newsletter won First Place for printed newsletter and Best in Show for this year’s annual Media Awards for the Association of Gospel Rescue Missions. We beat some of the largest rescue missions in the country who often hire outside firms for their publications and can afford full color. I just hope our newsletter can offer as much competition next year after redesigning its look to match our new brand!
"AGRM Media Innovation Competition was launched to recognize rescue missions who were making valuable progress in innovating print and online offerings. Call for entries attracted hundreds of submissions from rescue missions across the country in every budget size. AGRM awarded three Best in Show winners, as well as Award of Excellence, Award of Merit and Honorable Mention prizes for each category at the 2010 AGRM Conference in St. Charles, Illinois May 9-12. Congratulations to this years Media Innovation Competition award winners!"

Congratulations from a former writer of three different mission newsletters for the Sunday Breakfast Mission in Philadelphia, PA; Open Door Mission in Omaha, NE; and People's City Mission in Lincoln, NE. I know it is a lot of work. Good job!
Thank you! You sure know the work of newsletters!
PS - I recognize you from comments on Barb's Following Oswald blog.
