The lastest issue of NTM@work represents a milestone for our communications team. \u00a0It’s one of the first issues where we were able to send two writers to the location along with a photographer. \u00a0Usually, we research stories communicating with the missionaries via phone, email or other areas. \u00a0It’s not always that a writer gets to go on-scene! \u00a0And we have a ton of great photos to illustrate the story.<\/p>\n

This is one story Macon Hare has been dying to tell, and you can tell by his editor’s letter.<\/a><\/p>\n

The joy of yes is a milestone because its our first issue published since we went live with the new website earlier in May! \u00a0It’s got the new look.<\/p>\n

I spent the past couple of days pulling text out of the InDesign layout document Chris Holland and Jerry Lehman<\/a> put together \u2013 resizing photos to go on the web responsively, reading the story to figure out where to best place the photos, putting in call to action links…<\/p>\n

Then adding a few articles from the magazine’s\u00a0connect section, and featuring the story on the USA homepage<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even though each little turn seems frought with some crazy detail, like an extra story pulling the wrong description text online, ameila’s eyes roaming off the top of the webpage – what a great smile?,\u00a0the Triqui people group missing their webpage<\/a>, a prayer article not showing on the prayer page, and having an extra button link when it did…, and the volunteer buttons going all wacky! I am grateful that those little things were all fixable, and that I could edit the website template so we shouldn’t have those problems for the next issue! It’s important for the stories and the pages they link to to be working.<\/p>\n

Some cool new things we were able to do for this issue: A neat “pull quote” in the article<\/a> (look in the middle for a guy holding a box), a special “magazine” page<\/a> with a new look along with our featured story, and pulling in related article at the bottom of the story’s page<\/a>\u00a0(like the article about the street sweeper, and a project link to the Bible Institute Amelia attended), and also a special menu bar for each of the stories to tie the issue together. \u00a0Neat!<\/p>\n

On the backend in the CRM, the homepage feature image is a LOT easier to publish than in our previous design, and so is the issue of the magazine.<\/p>\n

Enough said. \u00a0Mayby you’d like to check out this new issue titled “Where you come from doesn’t limit God”<\/a>, and read Amelia’s inspiring story “The joy of Yes”<\/a>. \u00a0Here’s a shout-out to the writer, Rosie Cochran<\/a> and editor, Ian Fallis<\/a>. \u00a0And to Debbie<\/a> Burgett<\/a> for her article about volunteering<\/a>. \u00a0We’ve got a great team! \u00a0And this issue came out early too!<\/p>\n
