Cascading Style Sheet and Deleting that Link on the Bottom

I think I finally got it! I do have a couple of questions in regards to modifying the code (and I will probably have questions as I proceed in placing code on all of the pages).
1. There is a style sheet on the site that is governing the look of the text. I want to keep that same style when someone updates. Is there something I need to add to the code to make sure that the updated text defaults to the style sheet?
2. Maybe I am doing something wrong, but I am trying to remove this URL at the end. My attempts are causing error messages. I don't want this on every updated page. How do I get rid of this? It is annoying
My sample template that I am working with to make sure that all is well is http://promise7.org/ministry.php and the code is ministry. You can see on this page the different text size in the area that I placed the code from the area I did not. You can also see this disturbing URL.
I need help urgently. I have an upset Pastor who is wondering why it is taking so long with this update, delaying the administrators who need to update the site. I have written for help, and have not received a response, and responses to my prior questions are slow and not helpful. I am quite frustrated and need help urgently. I don't want to think I have wasted money and time on this, but it is getting to this point. Thank you.

On your head code make sure your character set is UTF-8
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
You have sort of done this, but you have two Head sections instead of just one. They are competing with each other. Get rid of one of them. Delete this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />
<style type="text/css">
body { font-family: arial; }
.instructions { border: 3px solid #000; background-color: #EEE; padding: 10px; text-align: left; margin: 25px}
</style>
</head>Leave the other head section but replace your character set with <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />
For your sitewide CSS, also put this in the head code:
<link href="/path/to/your/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
(replace with your path to your style sheet) or just continue to use inline CSS on every page. Either way works fine.
Problems will occur if you give people WYSIWYG boxes instead of Text Boxes.
And as for your other problem of "remove this URL at the end" I'm not sure where that is coming from.

Let me know about the url on the end you want to remove and I'll try to help you out with it.
The other thing is you can configure the wysiwyg to let users select CSS classes instead of font size/font face. Sometimes it's better to just provide a textbox though.
Let me know what you want to do with that and if you have any other issues with it.
Hope that helps!

I did get the url on the end removed (your tech support theme gave me that fix in their response to me). I am still trying to even understand how to do this as coding is not my thing. This is quite confusing to me, and I need to fix this. The information given in this post is too confusing. Is there anyway your team can go onto our server and help me with this issue? Thanks so much.
