2 Meet the Utah Staff! Issue 49 Utah Edition Hi! My name is Eric DeVries, I transferred out to Salt Lake from our Chicago branch early last year in This has been the best move for my family with dual appreciation toward both Robert-James Sales as well as our welcoming church home out here, Prince of Peace (popslc.org) which is a sister congregation to the church in Palos Heights back in the Chicago area (mentioned in Issue 41 March, 2012 PIPELINE.) Because not finding a healthy church that is a member of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod would have honestly been a deal breaker for me, this leap out west. This was also a concern. But our new church family out here has made the transition for her, our daughter Priscilla and I so comfortable, the mere thought of going back is not even in question. With the scenery, landscape, culture, and the new family out here just west of the Rockies, all we want to do is encourage everyone we know to move out near us rather than us wishing to be back with them. My family and I are very pleased with this move and want to thank Robert-James for making this scary yet exciting transition into the unknown possible. It has been very much worth it. Thank you. made me a bit nervous at first. This church not only made a great first impression, it has surpassed all of my/our expectations. Although I have moved around a bit before my years with Robert-James with mostly the Marine Corps and can find enjoyment and excitement in a big move, my wife Kristene has never been much more than walking distance from her home and family for any extended period of time before this Is the most important person in our company. Is a human being with feelings like our own. Deserves our most courteous and attentive treatment. Does not interrupt our work; he/she is the purpose of it. Brings us his/her needs; it is our job to fulfill them. Is part of our company; he/she is not an outsider. Does not depend on us; we depend on him/her. Page 2
