NER Chaplain Region Staff College Information

Dear Chaplains and CDIs,

I just got off of the phone with NER HC Williams and he personally forwarded the documents for the NER Chaplain Region Staff College.  He stated that the cut off date for registration for the PA Wing has been extended to 22 Apr 11, due to the documentation getting to us late.  The forms were initially emailed to Ch. Walters, but due to his illness and inability to check email he evidently missed them.  I spoke to Ch. Walters today and found that he is still suffering significant health problems.  Please keep him in your prayers.

Please find the NER Chaplain Region Staff College documents attached in an archived file.  Ch. Williams stated that he believes this will be one of the best staff colleges ever in the NER, and that he hopes it will be well supported by the Pa. Wing.  I will also post the documents on the Pa. Wing Chaplain's blog.

If you have any questions, or I can be of assistance in any way, please let me know.

Blessings to all,

Chaplain/CDI Statistical Reports Received to Date

Dear Chaplains and CDIs,

THANK YOU, to each of you who has submitted a Statistical Report for the last half of 2010!  To date, we are running a little less than a 50% submission rate.

Wouldn't it be great if we could hit 90%, or even better, 100%?

Please check the list below for your last name and first initial.  If your name does not appear, and you submitted as CAPF 34, please let me know how and when you sent it.  Send another copy if you can.  At this late date, its best to scan and email a copy or fax it to 8147231634.  The fax is a little "shakey" so if you don't get a confirmation, call or send an email and let me know.

If you have not yet submitted your report, please do so as soon as you possibly can.  I have been in contact with Ch. Walters and am aware that a few reports were sent to him, but other than his report, I do not know whose they are.  He is forwarding them to me and I hope to receive them soon.

The date your report was received follows your name.

Hart, L. 23 Nov 10

Hines, D. 06 Dec 10

McKeown, S. 11 Dec 10

Mangine, R. 13 Dec 10

Stone, W. 15 Dec 10

Jeffers, D. 24 Dec 10

Schuelke, E. 26 Dec 10

Ressetar, D. 26 Dec 10

Pierre, L. 29 Dec 10

Weaver, H. 29 Dec 10

Bracey, C.F.L. 30 Dec 10

Email problems Ch Matheny

Please use chaplain.pawg@gmail.com to contact me via email for the time being.

The email address I just opened a couple of months ago (w3ecj.rfm@gmail.com) has been shut down by Google for some reason they haven't explained to me.  It worked fine on Christmas day when I checked it, but when I tried to log in on Monday it returned a message that Google had detected unusual activity of some kind, although they have not specified exactly what it was.  I'm trying to get the account restored, but in the event I'm unsuccessful I'll probably move all of my email business from Google to another more reliable provider.  I'll let you know if that occurs.  If you have any recommendations, please let me know.  In the interim, please contact me at the chaplain.pawg@gmail.com address.

Re. the Chaplain/CDI statistical reports, I'll send a list of the ones I have received via USPS, fax and email late tonight or in the morning.

I hope everyone enjoys a safe, warm, and happy New Year!

Final Reminder: CAPF 34s Due NLT 31 Dec

Dear Chaplains and CDIs,

As I wrote in a previous message, Ch. Walters has requested that I compile the report to the Wing Commander and to the North East Region Chaplain on Pennsylvania Wing Chaplain and CDI Statistical Reports.  I am sure that everyone knows that this semi annual reporting is mandatory for all active Chaplains and CDIs.  To date I have received very few reports, so I wanted to take the opportunity to remind you that would like to have all reports in hand by no later than 31 Dec.  I will compile and submit the reports that I have received right after that, along with a list of those who have not submitted a report.  The regulation establishing the requirement is CAPR 265-1, Section B, Para. 8.  Thank you, to everyone who has already submitted their reports!

I know it is a busy time of year for most of us, and I thoroughly sympathize - I can hardly find time to pay attention.  But, it shouldn't take more than 15 or 20 minutes for most of us to complete the form so it is not a great burden on available time.  If you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask.  I will be glad to do anything I can to help, or point you to someone else who can.

I've attached PDF and MS Excel copies for your convenience.  Alternately, forms may be downloaded from the Wing Chaplain's Blog, or from NHQ.

If you complete the form electronically, you can email it to chaplain.pawg@gmail.com.  Paper forms may be mailed to PO Box 911, Warren, PA 16365-0911.  Please don't forget to submit a copy to your immediate commander and keep a copy for your personal record.

  I pray that all is well with each of you and that you are enjoying a blessed and safe Holiday Season!  

Randy

Important Reminder: CAPF 34s Coming Due

Dear Chaplains and CDIs,

I know this is a very busy time for most of us, especially those who are involved in full time ministry, but I would like to respectfully request that you take a little time as soon as possible to complete your CAPF 34 for the second half of 2010.  It shouldn't take more than 15 or 20 minutes for most of us to complete the form.  If you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask.  The regulation establishing the requirement is CAPR 265-1, Section B, Para. 8.

I've attached PDF and MS Excel copies for your convenience.  Alternately, forms may be downloaded from the Wing Chaplain's Blog, or from NHQ.  Those of you who may not have access to Microsoft Office products may want to try Sun Microsystems' MS Office compatible freeware OpenOffice Suite.

Ch. Walters has asked that I collect the forms on his behalf this year, and compile the data for submission to the Region Chaplain.  It takes a little while to compile and double check the data, so I would appreciate receiving your reports as soon as you are able to complete them, but hopefully before Christmas.

If you complete the form electronically, you can email it to chaplain.pawg@gmail.com.  Paper forms may be mailed to PO Box 911, Warren, PA 16365-0911.  Please don't forget to submit a copy to your immediate commander and keep a copy for your personal record.

  I pray that all is well with each of you and that you are enjoying a blessed and safe Holiday Season!
