ABOUT THE DIRECTORY: The 2003 SPJST Member Services Directory provides a listing of SPJST sales representatives and members who are in positions to provide various products and services for other SPJST members. The directory is published for the sole use of our members and is based on the idea of "members helping members." In compiling the directory, efforts were made to include the broadest range of service providers possible. The publication of any subsequent directory will be posted in the SPJSYs weekly newspaper, Vestnik, and announced throughout the districts.

The SPJST — at its best — seeks to build and strengthen relationships. With strong relationships come vitality, the freedom to strive and create. Meaningful involvement makes men, women and children happy in the work that they are doing.

Projects that strive to achieve a sense of purpose, high standards and positive anticipation make us proud to be members and attract others.

Building relationships is the theme behind this special edition of the Vestnik. In addition to the many member business listings, you will find local lodge contacts, including sales representatives and general information about benefits available to qualifying SPJST members and prospective members. And, be sure to check out the center section which highlights member businesses that offer sales discounts to SPJST members!

There are also sections which introduce various aspects of the SPJST experience — including the SPJST Youth Program, profiled on page eleven. I hope that you find this information enlightening — and when

you're done — that you will share it with a non-member and let them know of the many benefits of membership available through the SPJST and through our local lodges. Additional copies of this edition are available from the Vestnik office at (800) 727-7578.

As you can imagine, the challenge in putting out an issue like this is the potential for errors. Working closely with the other departments here at the SPJST Home Office, we've tried to ensure that the issue is clean; however, change is constant. If you find an inaccuracy, please call it to our attention so it can be corrected and not repeated in future editions.

In closing, thank you, brothers and sisters, for your membership in the SPJST, for your participation in this year's directory and for your continuing efforts to make a positive difference in your community and the growth of our Society.

SPJST Offers Both Term and Whole Life Insurance The purchase of life insurance

verted to permanent insurance prior to age 65. Term expires at age 70.

remains a cornerstone to membership in the SPJST. When the

Flexible Protector Plan. Designed as

SPJST was organized, members bought life insurance to meet the immediate emergency needs at death. Today, members look to the SPJST for a flexible line of life insurance products.

Term Insurance

Of the two basic types of life insurance, term insurance premiums are the lowest because term insurance offers death protection only and is in effect for a limited period. For example, a member with a ten-year term certificate has protection for that ten-year period -not beyond. If the certificate is renewable, it may be extended for another period at a premium based on the new age. If not renewable, a new certificate may be purchased at the new rate, provided the certificate holder remains insurable.

SPJST typically writes term certificates for 10-year and 20-year terms on a level premium basis. Prior to age 65, you can convert an SPJST term certificate to a permanent plan of insurance with a cash value. Who typically buys term insurance? This varies, of course; however, likely purchasers are young couples starting careers. When budget constraints prohibit purchasing the desired amount of cash value insurance, term insurance is often substituted. The term insurance provides them with a high amount of protection at a low premium.

The following listing provides a brief summary of the term insurance options that are available:

Mod-Term. A modern 10-year term product issued to ages 20-60, renewable to age 70 and convertible prior to age 65 with indeterminate premiums. Can be continued as an Annual Renewable Term certificate from age 70 to 95. Ask about original age enhancement option.

Mod-20. A modern 20-year term product issued to ages 20-50, renewable to age 70 and convertible to age 65 with indeterminate premiums. Can be continued as an Annual Renewable Term certificate from age 70 to 95.

Elite - 30 Plan. Introduced in 2001, the Elite-30 Plan offers a 30-year term certificate that is renewable to age 95 and convertible prior to age 65. The premium is guaranteed for the first 20 certificate years; and prior to age 65, may be converted without proof of insurability to any form of life insurance (other than term insurance) then being offered by the SPJST, provided that the amount of insurance applied for does not exceed the amount in force prior to conversion.

Annual Renewable Term (ART). A one year term product that automatically renews each year with applicable premiums. Issued to ages 16 through 65. Can be con-

a reducing term insurance plan on two lives over a 20-, 25-, or 30-year period. Pays off on the death of the first insured. Premiums are calculated on combination of two insured ages. Can be used as a mortgage cancellation plan.

Term 4 Life Plan. Combines elements of both term and whole life insurance. The plan offers level lifetime coverage to age 99 and premiums which start at less than half of a guaranteed whole life premium.

Whole Life Insurance As its name suggests, whole life insurance furnishes protection for the "whole life" of the purchaser, regardless of the premium-paying period.

Whole life insurance is often purchased not only as premature death protection but also as a vehicle for accumulating funds for emergencies and for retirement.

An SPJST whole life certificate also has a "cash value" that can be used to take advantage of business or investment opportunities, help defray your children's college costs or help build retirement income. Likewise, it offers guaranteed protection and guaranteed growth at a guaranteed price.

The SPJST offers several variations on the whole life theme:

Youth Achiever. Introduced in 2001, the Youth Achiever offers benefits that can last a lifetime. You can get $10,000 to $50,000 of life insurance coverage for your child or grandchild. Premiums are low: $5.40 monthly or $60 annually per $10,000 unit of coverage, with a maximm of five units per youngster. The SPJST Youth Achiever certificate also builds cash value.

Accidental death and payor disability riders are available.

Senior Life. A whole life product designed as a final expense certificate for ages 50 to 85. Eligibility determined by short medical questionnaire. Physical exam and blood test not required. Affordable and written with relaxed underwriting requirements.

Lone Pay Life. A whole life product available with just one premium.

The certificate is then paid-up.

Issued to ages 0 through 80.

Adult and Juvenile Whole Life. A whole life product designed for both young and mature applicants that offers affordable premiums and builds cash value.

Adult and Juvenile 20-Payment Life. A whole life product designed for both young and mature applicants with premiums payable for 20 years. Issued to ages 0 through 60.

Now, let's get out there and make good things happen!

Building a meaningful and satisfying fraternal program is as much of a challenge in the city as it is in rural areas. Strong lodges are made up of members who respect each other. That comes with time and it takes work. It means keeping your word, meeting commitments, giving credit were its due and communicating with each other when things go right as well as when things go wrong.

As a fraternal benefit society, the SPJST has a 106-year history of enriching the lives of its members and the communities in which they work and play. Effective immediately, all of that's history. Our success in the year 2003 and beyond depends more on what we do from this day forward than what we did yesterday.

All of today are a vital link between the SPJST's past and its future. Being an active lodge member is a worthy obligation that involves a lot of giving and a certain amount of risk taking. It can also be a very enjoyable and rewarding experience. Now, let's get out there and make it happen!

SPJST Youth Program Aims to Build Character To build character among the young and to pursue educational, patriotic, social and athletic recreation. These are the goals of SPJST's statewide youth program.

On an annual basis, youth clubs from more than 35 lodges across the state sponsor a wide range of social activities, community service projects and charity projects. It's about having fun, but it's also about contributing to the welfare of the people of Texas.

The youth program is coordinated by the State Youth Director who works closely with seven District Youth Counselors who are elected by each district.

In addition, the program relies on the support of approximately 90 youth leaders and numerous parents who work to support the program.

The educational aspect of the SPJST Youth Program is an integral part of local youth club activities.

State and local programs address a range of areas, including human relations, nature, parliamentary procedure, juvenile decency, arts and crafts, the fine arts, music, dramatics and ethnic tradition. Youth club members range from age six to high school senior.

The patriotic program consists of ceremonial rituals and an annual essay contest. The objective is to teach the operation of a free democratic society and majority rule. The social program includes parties, dances, picnics, pageants, hay rides and family group activities.

Summer Camp The SPJST also makes summer camping trips available to its active young members.

More than 450 young people attended in 2002. To be eligible to attend camp at no charge, youth members must attend a majority of youth meetings or a majority of lodge meetings, if the lodge does not have a youth club.

Youth members must also attend a majority of the youth activities in the youth club or lodge. Non-active youth members may attend camp for a fee of $85.

Youth camp funds come from an annual allocation made by the SPJST Supreme Lodge. Professionals are hired for instruction in archery, aquatics, horsemanship and as camp nurse.

Much of the chaperoning and programming is done by parents and SPJST trained leaders.

(Continued on page 12.)

For local youth club information, please contact the youth leaders listed below or your District Youth Counselor listed on page two.

Adult leaders receive training at an annual workshop held in the spring. A second workshop for youth club members in high school is held in June.

State Youth Achievement Day and Royalty Competition In addition to summer camp, the SPJST encourages participation in various individual and group contests, culminating with the State Youth Achievement Day (YAD) and Royalty Contest held on a statewide basis on the second Saturday in August. The crowning moment of the SPJST's royI alty competition is the coronation of the king and queen who are selected on the basis of a speech during which they are scored on content, delivery and overall presence. All of the individuals who compete for the honor are winners in their own right, having been selected to represent their respective districts as king and queen candidates.

More than 500 young people and adults from across the state are expected to be in Temple Saturday, August 9, to participate in the 2003 SPJST State YAD and State Royalty Competition The SPJST's youth program is a cooperative effort that reflects the great potential of the SPJST — young and old — working together to achieve common goals and enjoying life together.

For more than 70 years, the SPJST has been using its Mortgage Loan Program as one of its investment vehicles to invest the assets of the Society. And unlike most commercial institutions, SPJST does not sell its mortgage notes to other financial institutions. When you

In order to be considered for a mortgage loan with the SPJST, you or your spouse must be a member of the Society. Likewise, each immediate family is subject to a maximum financing limitation of $250,000.

The SPJST is currently offering home and farm mortgages with notes ranging from 1 - 30 years.

For more information regarding the SPJST's Mortgage Lending Program, please contact the SPJST Mortgage Lending Department at (800) 727 7578 and ask to speak to Ann Paruzinski.
