MCS Newsflash: New Server Migration [UPDATED]


On July 9, 2013, we were notified that our site will be migrated to a new server within the next couple of weeks or so. Please note that this server change was initiated by our hosting company as a result of their recent acquisition. Is NOT related to our ongoing site redesign efforts. We certainly wish it was possible to avoid this disruption, but unfortunately this is not possible.
As a result of this migration, please expect the following...
* Functionality & accessibility issues with MyCatholicSource.com during the transition period
* Possible issues with e-mail during and after the transition period
* No newsletter for August 2013
Should you experience issues with our site (or with correspondence to us), please...
* Try again later
* Check our blog for updates - http://mycatholicsource.blogspot.com (Note: We may post updates on our blog if we are unable to access our server)
* Contact us using another method (e.g. telephone)
Switching servers is a huge undertaking and we'd certainly appreciate any prayers you might be able to offer for a successful transition. We are hopeful there may be fewer issues this time compared to the last time we switched servers because - unlike last time - this time we are transitioning to a similar server with the same operating system. Although we have not yet been provided with specific dates for the transition, we expect it will occur sometime within the next couple of weeks or so.
Thank you for your support & patience during the transition!
 
8/13 Update: The new server is live. Please let us know if you encounter any problems. Thank you!
