The Christian Sentinel
Feature Publication of Eastern Christian Outreach



(Revised Aug. 7, 2002)
IMPORTANT NOTE: In June 2002, the Alnors moved to southeast Texas, where Bill accepted a professorship with Texas A&M University in Kingsville. Accordingly, since the Alnors no longer live in the Eastern U.S., the name Eastern Christian Outreach seems redundant. Therefore, the Alnors will likely be closing the corporation known as Eastern Christian Outreach and will be continuing their efforts contained in this mission and doctrinal statement under the name The Christian Sentinel. Stay tuned for further changes!
This is the index page of the online Christian Sentinel magazine, which is an occasional publication of Eastern Christian Outreach, Inc. Although we originally envisioned this magazine to be a quarterly, in recent years ministry president Bill Alnor's three roles as a pastor/church planter (from 1996 to the fall of 2000), a full time college professor at Temple University, and as a student working to complete his Ph.D. work, prevented us from publishing in a timely matter. This has continued through 2002, as Bill was employed full time at a university in Northern Pennsylvania in 2001-02 and now is employed in south Texas. Although our last issue was published in February 1999, we anticipate our next issue to come out at the end of 2002/early 2003. All previous subscriptions will be honored.
