Some congregations in our synods have been solicited by a company selling ad space in flyers for restaurants. Despite having a credible local reference, at least one local congregation has had a very bad experience with them, neither getting what they paid for nor a refund.

The purpose of this space is not to complain about every last poor customer service experience (let me know if you want to hear some, I've got plenty!), but this is one company that you may want to stay away from.

The company goes under several names, including Northwest Publishing, Table Topics, Trivia Page, NWP and Table Topics Inc.
