How to Support The Southern Cross

From Geoff Harris, Rooiels, WC

I wholeheartedly support Mervyn Pollitt’s powerful urging of clerics and laity to support The Southern Cross (April 8).

Our Associates Campaign has been endorsed by the Southern African Catholic Bishops' Conference.

We simply cannot afford to lose our one and only weekly Catholic newspaper, one which provides such interesting material in a high-quality format – and a valuable forum for discussion in which to air our news and views.

There are at least two other ways to actively show support: by joining the Associates Campaign (scross.co.za/associates-campaign) and/or by Catholic businesses placing their advertisements in The Southern Cross, which many already do.

On hearing of the detrimental effect of the postal strike, my little business, Healthy Alternatives, chose the latter route with our Reflex-o-Board advert and we have been very pleasantly surprised at the results.

As an additional incentive to those who might be hesitating, let me compliment your staff on their helpful and professional attitude—nothing is too much trouble for Elizabeth Hutton, whose years of experience are invaluable.

Thank you, Southern Cross, for the wonderful job you do of keeping us informed and up-to-date.
