O God, you have prepared for those who love you joys beyond understanding.

1) The 2012 Bulletin of Reports is now available online (download below). Rostered leaders and lay voting members will also receive their hard copy books at the annual Pre-Assembly Conference Meetings. (In addition to the full Bulletin of Reports, some separate sections are available for download, below, for your convenience.)
2) IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT ON-LINE REGISTRATION!!!
If you want to do multiple registrations, you will need to wait for a few days. A temporary "glitch" has been discovered in the system, and it is not allowing the accurate intake of multiple registrations. We will post an announcement here on the website when the problem has been corrected. In the meantime, you may register if you are only doing one registration. We are sorry for the temporary inconvenience.
