The Publishing Ministry oversees the publishing of all written materials (excerpts, brochures, booklets, books) produced by the church. Some materials, such as the Bible Study excerpts, the Sunday Service brochures, the Sermon outlines, staff meeting agendas, or the Discipleship or post-baptism booklets, are church-wide; others, such as retreat booklet or conference brochures, are ministry-specific. Both types of materials necessitate much reliability and efficiency from the Publishing staff to meet tight deadlines. Members of this Ministry sometimes have to work long hours, even all night, dealing with last minute editing and printing difficulties.
