Crossroads summer break

The following update was sent to Crossroads’ mailing list subscribers on Thursday 28 June 2007:

Dear Crossroads reader,

Crossroads will be taking a summer break as of July 2, 2007. We’ll be back on August 1, 2007 with a fresh selection of news and feature articles.

I am pleased to announce that a number of new writers will be joining our team of contributors after the break. Some of these are readers who will be moving to Maastricht in the next few weeks and who have already expressed their wish to take an active part in our magazine.

Here’s an overview of the articles we’ve published since our last update on May 22, 2007:
