([1st letter by Tracy concerning the newly resurrected church E-Newsletter]

Blessings everyone ! Happy First day of SPRING !! It is a time of rebirth and life! I am happy to report that attached is the newest copy of The Rock MCC E-newsletter. My apologies for having taken a year off, however, my soul needed much healing from my loss. God has never stopped blessing me, though it took me some time to realize it. I just had to open my eyes and see the blessings for what they are. Please open up and read the newsletter. There are NUMEROUS upcoming events and I would so hate for you to miss out on the blessings they may bring you !!

Strides of March, Good Friday, Easter Sunday, Holy Union..... this edition has it all... (making up for lost time) !!!

May this find you all heavily blessed and highly favored !!

In Christ's love,

Tracy Brown

[2nd letter by Tracy concerning the newly resurrected church E-Newsletter]

Happy Spring everyone !!!! ,
I just wanted to let you all know that there is a NEW EDITION of the Rock MCC E-newsletter and I sent it out to everyone on my church Comcast e-mail list, though I blind copied everyone for privacy so the only email address other than your own that you should see is mine, earthtracy@aol.com. I kept Eric's Easter message from last year as it is still relevant and fitting as far as timing and content. I felt that this being the First day of Spring, it was a great time for rebirth and being Easter time, a wonderful time for resurrection. So I have resurrected the newsletter and it has been reborn. PLEASE let me know of corrections, changes, or additions which may need to be added. I have always strived for this to be 2 pages, however, sometimes it may need a 3rd and seeing as how you cannot have a Holy Trinity without a 3rd...maybe that is what this needs. Just let me know.

Blessings,
Tracy)

Misc Personal Notes

NOTE:    I always save the e-NewsLetter to my desktop in the same filename that Tracy names them. Then I always rename those filenames as given below when I copy them to the website folder.

I date the LINK to each e-NewsLetter to the above Sunday's current date. That is how first two issues was done.
Reasoning: The newsletter basically refers to the following coming Sunday & beyond, and not very much to the past Sunday. That is why there is a difference at times from what the letters says about the 'volume part', & what I put in the link on this website to that newsletter.  To me, it is easier to organize it by each coming Sunday. But that small difference is immaterial  --'neither here or there'-- I only point out the difference so you will not think there is a mistake on the website concerning the volume part; what
really matters is the content of the letters. So read them.

[Generally, the e-NewsLetter's ending date determines volume-issue numbers. That is why mine has been different at times. Will from now on go by what is in e-NewsLetter, and redo info in the above list. This does not effect the newsletter number & date that I use, it only effects how it's organized above.]

[Dates listed in above list are given in the general accepted USA way of  MONTH name, DAY date, YEAR date.
Dates in document file names  are listed differently, so that the file names will be alphabetized correctly, by YEAR date, MONTH date, DAY date, when listing them in a folder directory on computer hard drive, in order to keep all file names in correct order of  'first issue'  to  'last issue', or vice versa. Date names are transformed into correct numbers to alphabetize correctly in any given list.

Also, in the above date numbering listing, I'm using a period, or dot, instead of dashes, to separate "
month.day.year" such as "02.05.11" for today's date [at the time of writing this] which is February 5, 2011, and using the dash only between consecutive day dates, such as "03.28-04.03.10" meaning March 28 to, through April 4, 2010. I'm using the dash mark to mean "to, or, through". Using all dashes could cause confusion.]

{The filename
"RockMCCNewsLetter_
2010-01-24.pdf"  = the first issue, & the filename "RockMCCNewsLetter_2011-08-14.pdf"  = the last newest issue (as of the date this writing), with all the other issues in between these two filenames. This [(# = number) Year # date, Month # date, Day # date] is the ONLY way to correctly name the actual filenames of the newsletters in regard to dates, which in turn automatically displays all issues in the correct alphabetized dated ordered way in any given listing when viewing in a folder/directory on your computer. IF you do it any other way, all filenames will be out of order in regard to dates  --all filenames will NOT be in the correct date order.}


* I had the e-NewsLetter date that I used, match the volume number, which is different from what is in the e-NewsLetter, which also affected all the issue numbers for that month.
[NOT updating this note part in above list...]
