www.mennosimons.nl | YOU SMELL SPRING! -----Original Message----- From: tulip@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:tulip@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 4:21 AM To: kathy@xxxxxxx Subject: www.mennosimons.nl | YOU SMELL SPRING! Dear Sisters and Brothers, I proudly present the one and only www.mennosimons.nl ... a site that cheers the internet up! With content all about the Dutch floral accolade *) to the revered Mennonite leader Menno Simons: the deep red tulip symbolises the warmth of the Mennonite religion. Just as Menno Simons pioneered the development of the Mennonites, which is now a world wide community, so the tulip has become synonymous the world over with the image of The Netherlands. Both notable reputations are now irrevocably bound to each other. And now also on the internet. Please mention this new website in one of your future publications or as a bookmark/link on your own site. For now with all mennounites regards, Br. Pieter de Hart. The Mennonite spring begins with the Menno Simons-tulip! - Idea for ... - Christmas, New Year? Valentine? - What ever the party is ... MENNOUNITES®!!!!!! - Please download the card with the 5 tulips, you - will see in the second window. And, mail it as a - Mennonite greeting to friends and/or a beloved - Sister or Brother (as attachment of your mail). - Cheerful Christmas, compliments of the season - ... Happy New Year, and, for 14-02-2003 also a - Happy Valentine! - (p.s. tulp is Dutch for tulip) *) The floral accolade has been an initiative of Br. P. de Hart (member of the Dutch Doopsgezinde Gemeente Beemster-Oosthuizen) and, officially approved by the Menno 500 Committee, in 1996 acting as the representative of the Dutch Algemene Doopsgezinde Societeit (ADS), now Doopsgezind Nederland. ----------------------------------- .
