Email all content and inquires to: [email protected]

The St. Bede works very hard each week to produce the bulletin. We try very hard to accommodate each and every. If you submit articles to the bulletin, please review our guidelines and email the [email protected] if you have any questions.
 

• ARTICLES:
  • Please send a word document and send accompanying images as attachments.
  • Please do not design your article in Word or any other program with fancy text and imbedded images.  Since we cannot guarantee the available space for your message it is best to send us the text and accompanying pictures (as email attachments) and let us lay it out so it fits our format.
• PICTURES:
  • Pictures should be as high quality as possible. Cell phone photos are taken at 72 ppi (points per inch) which is great for screens (phones, computers) but print requirements dictate a photo with at least 300 ppi.
  • If you choose to use cell phone photos for your article, please make sure the picture is taken as close to the subject as possible. To check the print quality of the photos, save your article as a PDF file and increase the size to 300%. That will give you an idea of how the picture will print.
• PDF FILES:
  • Unless you are requesting an insert, please do not send PDF files.  For us to use a PDF file in the printed bulletin we must exported as a JPEG file and that degrades the quality.
• INSERTS:
  • Please check with the bulletin editor by emailing the [email protected] prior to creating your insert.  Depending on the amount of content an insert may not be needed. 
• AREA CHURCHES AND ORGANIZATION:
  • Please send text and images as email attachments and we will lay out your article as space dictates. 

If your email is sent to anyone other than the [email protected] there is no guarantee your article will make it into the bulletin.  Everyone tasked with compiling the bulletin all have access the bulletin email box and will receive your request.
