Welcome to the Internet
home of the Northeastern Ohio Synod (NEOS) of the
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America!
These pages contain
information about and links to ELCA congregations and
ministries in Northeast Ohio. Our web site offers a friendly roadmap of our synod for those
seeking a church home, for congregations looking for assistance, for clergy and
lay people involved in NEOS ministries, or for those just visiting.
We hope that you will find our web site informative and
useful. We welcome your feedback and comments.
Welcome to the electronic edition of the NEOS
monthly unified mailing packet. This eMailing includes electronic versions
of the packet documents that can be viewed and printed from your Internet
browser.
A special software product is required
to view and print these documents. Adobe Acrobat Reader
is a free
piece of software that can be easily downloaded from the Adobe web
site. After the download, the software will guide you through the
installation process and install itself as an add-on to your
browser. It will be automatically launched when you view the Unified
eMailing or any other Adobe Acrobat document.

Advantages
Share information with a click! Do you
distribute copies to committee chairs, associates and other church
workers and volunteers? Think of how easy this will be using email
and these online documents!
It's paperless! No one wants to shuffle
paper. Why add clutter to your desk, office and church mailboxes?
Think of the trees you can personally help save.
It's online! Ever wonder what was really
in the packet after playing mail carrier at the church mailboxes? We
are going to keep 6 months of the Unified eMailing online. You just
have to point and click to retrieve that "missing"
document. Church secretaries will love it!
Our staff needs a break! Every month an
army of dedicated volunteers descends on the synod office to copy,
collate and mail almost 1,000 packets. Think of the time and money
that can be saved by printing 100… 200… 300… less copies.
