1996 INTEGRITY NATIONAL CONVENTION

Integrity/New York today announced plans for the 1996 Integrity National
Convention.

Running from June 27 through June 30, 1996, the Convention will be centered
in the historic Greenwich Village and Chelsea districts of New York City. The
theme is "Approaching the New Millennium with Integrity."

The convention has been scheduled during the City's traditional LesBiGay
Pride observances. Beginning with Evening Prayer and registration on
Thursday, June 27, the gathering will culminate with participation in the
annual Heritage of Pride Parade on Sunday, June 30, and the traditional Pride
Festival Evensong at the Church of St. Luke-in-the-Fields, the New York
Chapter's host parish.

Conferences will be held on the campus of New York University. Optional
accommodations are available at a ten percent discount at the Washington
Square Hotel, across Washington Square Park from the University, and
overlooking the route of the parade. Help is available in arranging other
accommodations; also several local chapter members have graciously offered
their homes for those truly in need.

The majestic Landmark on the Park Ballroom overlooking Central Park will be
the setting for the banquet, replete with elegant cuisine and outstanding
entertainment.

Details of the convention are still being developed. Fliers will be in the
mail to all Integrity members and chapters by week's end, with prices and
registration information, including discounts and arrangements for attending
only selected portions of the convention, if that is your pleasure.

Attendees should plan on arriving Thursday evening, June 27, or in time for
breakfast on Friday. The Convention ends officially after the Awards Banquet
and entertainment, late Saturday evening, June 29, but continues unofficially
throughout Pride Day, Sunday, June 30.
