I set up an GF LISTSERV (hereafter LS). The purpose of an LS is to allow a group to have an voluntary "internal" email system, where anyone can join the LS and receive emails from anyone else in the LS. You will not receive emails from this LS until you subscribe to it.
The instructions to join it are very simple:
Many people would rather just come and check on the website at their leisure, rather than being sent information they may not particularly care about at that time. Also, emails clutter up our inboxes. Therefore, the major means of communication in the group is via the blogsite. Now, instead of sending unsolicited emails, I will only send emails to the LS occasionally, and its major purpose will be to facilitate communication between members.
To save yourself some heartache, I recommend setting up a folder and message filter within your email client (e.g. Thunderbird, Outlook) to have all emails from the LS automagically filed away to.
An alternative option to joining the LISTSERV is subscribing to our blog via email:
If you ever want to leave the LISTSERV, follow the instructions here.
I invite you all to use the LS to pass along godless-relevant news and anecdotes, and please feel free to email us anytime with any suggestions or information that you think I may want to post or email. Also please become a contributor to our blogsite, and post articles of interest to our group.

The instructions to send an email to the LS are also very simple:
- Send an email to LISTSERV@LISTS.UFL.EDU
- In the BODY of the email, NOT the subject line, type, "subscribe aafsa-l" (without quote marks)
- Alternatively, you can manage your subscription here.
Please be aware these are going to be very public, so write with the awareness that many people will be reading the email. I am the moderator of the LS, so all messages are approved before being distributed, therefore there will be a delay in seeing a message you send out to the group. Also note that there are archives stored on the server for public viewing for every email.
- Write an email and send it to the address AAFSA-L@LISTS.UFL.EDU
