The Documents of the 43rd General Chapter have been sent to the printer. It will be a few weeks before they are mailed to the various Districts, so I am posting an advanced copy on the Web. They are in Acrobat Reader format, so if you would like to view them but do not have Adobe's Acrobat Reader, you must download the reader. You can download a free copy of Acrobat Reader from Adobe by clicking here:

The documents can be printed, especially for those who have difficulty reading small print, by selecting fit to page if your printer has this option. I will post as many future Institute documents as possible on the web in this format, and encourage you, if possible, to print them in this manner for those who are visually challenged.

As we move forward with our Institute web project, the space that was used for the General Chapter will be devoted to Online Publications. If you have any suggestions about documents that should be posted online, please let me know. The primary format for the storage of these documents will be PDF (portable document format).

Thank you to all who have made many creative suggestions for improving the use of our site.
