Presbyterian Voice Wins Award
In National RCC Competition

Presbyterian Voice has been recognized by the Religion Communicators Council with a Merit Award in the category of regional publications. Voice editor Jane Hines received the award in a ceremony held in Birmingham, Alabama, March 26 in conjunction with RCC’s annual meeting.

In this annual competition entries in various categories are judged by peers in local chapters across the country. The awards honor the late Victor DeRose and Paul M. Hinkhouse, leading lithographers in New York City.

Ronald T. Glusenkamp, chair of the DeRose-Hinkhouse awards and Vice President, Customer Outreach, of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of American Board of Pensions in Minneapolis, said, “These awards validate the imagination and originality so plentiful in our RCC family. They demonstrate the high quality of work that institutions receive from our RCC members.”

Voice editor Jane Hines credits the excellent work of Voice columnists, writers, designers and page editors for the award, which was given for the June, August, October, and December 2003 issues of the Voice.

The Religion Communicators Council is an interfaith association of religion communicators at work in print and electronic communication, marketing and public relations. Established in 1929, it is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year as the oldest association of religion communicators in America.

The 2005 Religion Communicators Council convention will be held in Nashville, Tennessee, April 7-9, 2005.
