Reen Gutgsell Okay, now I'm keeping track of the Benedictines' bakery vs. the Sisters of Providence bakery. The score at this time is: Benedictines 64 and Providence 0. I guess that's cheating 'cuz the Providence nuns don't have a FAMOUS bakery.

Yes, I read it, and it was very good. I had just me Sr. Laura on Wednesday at a get-together at Kordes. So that was pretty cool since she and I had just met. She is really cool.
The outstanding marketing for the bakery is what I want to do for Stillpoint. One thing we have gotten accomplished so far is that The Herald is going to do a Satuday... See More feature story on them to (possibly) run on Holy Saturday night. The reporter who is going to write the story has never been to the Monastery, so she and I are going to try and get a tour in within the next couple of weeks. It will blow her mind when she sees it.
I'm going to meet with Karen after the first of the year to throw some more ideas around for Stillpoint. (I LOVE those girls!!)
Then, down the road a bit, I'm going to try to get the reporter to do a feature on The Kordes Center, but I haven't told Sr. Marilyn yet. Whatever income we can bring to the Sisters is just a plus for them.

Sorry about the misspelling above. I just got a new computer, and somebody keeps moving the keys around while I'm trying to type.

Reen Gutgsell Just thought I would let you all know that the Benedictines are ahead of the Sisters of Providence in the Facebook fans "ballgame." The score: Benedictines--291 fans and Providence nuns--259 fans. (I think I need something to do.)

We need a "fan" drive to stay ahead of the game! Any ideas?

Let me work on it.
I can tell you, thought that I would like to see a page on Facebook for Stillpoint. I'm trying to come up with ideas on promoting their music. We need to "get 'em out there !!"
AND with that new CD coming out (hopefully very soon) we can promote it as well.

I'm not sure if I can get a livestream set up before Sunday. Maybe I'll see if we can get video of it and post on here.

I do believe that WJTS out of Jasper will be airing it sometime closer to Christmas, though. Wish you all could be here.
