Fall 1994

The Urantia Foundation is pleased to announce the opening of a Foundation office in Paris, France. The work of the office will be carried out by a volunteer staff of French readers, managed by Georges and Marlène Michelson-Dupont. The address of the office is:

Urantia Foundation
8, Passage de la Bonne Graine
75011 Paris, FRANCE
Tel.: (33)1.48.06.60.11
Fax: (33)1.48.06.59.09

The opening of an office in France promises many benefits for the dissemination of Le Livre d'Urantia and its teachings. First, French readers can more easily find other readers or study groups in their area. Second, The Urantia Foundation can respond more easily and quickly, in French, to inquiries from French-speaking readers. Third, because the new version was printed in France, bookstores are able to sell the book at a less expensive price. And fourth, because the book is now listed in the computer databases of the French bookstores, and because the books are shipped within France, the time between ordering and receiving the book has been cut from several weeks to several days.

We salute those French readers, whose desire to work interdependently with the Foundation, has brought about enhanced possibilities for the orderly dissemination of Le Livre d'Urantia. We also want to express our gratitude to the French readers who volunteered their efforts for more than ten years, making more than 40,000 revisions and corrections to Le Livre d'Urantia, and who generously paid for much of the cost of printing the revised and corrected translation. They have also made a commitment to pay for much of the cost of printing the Dutch translation. We can all be challenged to new levels of service by the example of these anonymous readers.
