Church of Ireland congratulates magazine editors and website managers
The Church of Ireland today acknowledged the skills and dedication of magazine editors and website managers as it made the awards for its annual magazine and website competition.
At the General Synod in Armagh, Archbishop Robin Eames presented awards for best parish magazine, best diocesan magazine, best parish website and best diocesan website.
In commenting on the quality and creativity of entries, Archbishop Eames said, “I am delighted once again to encourage communication within the church which keeps us all informed and up-to-date with developments at local, diocesan and national levels. And each year I have been conscious that the high standard has not only been maintained but is increasing.”
The Church of Ireland congratulates all winners and acknowledges the hard work and commitment of all those who took part.
The competition is sponsored by the Down, Dromore and Connor Board of Education.
