A Note from the Membership Chair

What will your administrative staff be doing from May 16 to May 20, 2012?  Will they be working in the office doing their weekly tasks or will they be joining other administrative personnel at this year’s Florida Region Administrative Personnel Association Conference in Sarasota?

This year’s conference offers a great opportunity for your staff to grow in their professional and spiritual life.  Led by clergy and other professionals, the knowledge gained by their attendance will enhance their ability to more effectively allow them to serve their respective organization.

Encourage your lay staff to join the Administrative Personnel Association of the Presbyterian Church (USA).  Membership forms can be found on the Florida Region’s website, www.floridaapa.org.  While there, make sure to download the registration form for the 2012 Florida Region Conference.  For a small investment in your administrative staff, they will return from the conference with the knowledge and spiritual wellbeing to be more effective in their jobs.

Show your administrative staff that they are a valuable asset to you and your congregation.  Make sure to let them know that you are willing to invest in them by paying their membership dues ($75) and conference expenses (approximately $500).  For a small investment in them, you will gain a happier and loyal staff member who knows that they are valued.

If you want to know how the APA can benefit your organization, contact Barbara Prieto, Florida Region President, at 305-666-8566 or rivierachurch@bellsouth.net.
