Newsletters from 1996 through 2000
Prior to 2000, the North Dakota Catholic Conference published and mailed a newsletter called “Perspective.” The conference recently discovered portable document versions of the newsletters from 1996 to 2000. The documents are available below. Please excuse the formatting. These are the original documents that were later reformatted by the printer.
