    A story in the May 7 issue of NEWS BRIEFS about the search for a new 
general secretary for the Consultation on Church Union (#99169, p. 15) 
included an incomplete address for the submission of applications.  The 
correct address is Ecumenical and Urban Affairs, COCU Search, 700 Martin 
Luther King Jr. Drive S.W., ITC Box 456, Atlanta, GA 30314-4143.

    A story in the May 14 issue of NEWS BRIEFS about issues coming to the 
211th General Assembly (#99172, p. 9) implied that Pittsburgh Presbytery 
knew that the Rev. Jane Adams Spahr was an avowed lesbian when it ordained 
her.  Spahr was not an avowed lesbian when she was ordained in 1974.

    A story in the April 23 issue of NEWS BRIEFS about "That All May Freely 
Serve" (#99151, p. 12) contained errors.  The new Chicago-based staff 
member is Tom Hickock, not Hickcock.  He is no longer a seminary student, 
having graduated from Princeton Theological Seminary in 1994 and from the 
University of Edinburgh, Scotland, with a Th.M. in 1995.  Hickock is a 
candidate under the care of Twin Cities Area Presbytery.

    A story in the May 28 issue of Presbyterian Headline News bulletin 
insert about the "Stop In and Find Out" advertising campaign incorrectly 
listed the Presbyterian Distribution Center's phone number. The correct 
phone number is 1-800-524-2612.
