Dear Co-Worker with Christ:
TODAY I can ANNOUNCE THIS BIG NEWS AT LAST! Now It's
OFFICIAL! I have said before I expected to announce it soon.
But TODAY something else happened. Mr. Portune, our
business manager just now came to my office and said, "TODAY THE
BOTTOM DROPPED OUT!" He was talking about the income for God's

Jesus Christ IS NOT DEAD -- He ROSE from the dead -- HE IS
ALIVE right now, actively directing THIS WORK OF GOD -- and THIS IS
THE SEASON MORE THAN ANY OTHER, when HE needs these gifts FOR HIS
WORK! He has blest us by drafting us as HIS CO-WORKERS. We have
OUR PART to do!
And speaking of Christ being ALIVE! That is what this big
announcement is all about! And even though I need to get this
urgent letter off to you immediately, I feel I MUST take time to
tell you WHAT HE HAS JUST DONE FOR HIS WORK!
I have just returned from my second visit to Jerusalem in
approximately four weeks. Four weeks ago all the preliminary
discussions took place, and this trip IT WAS MADE OFFICIAL! It's
one of the most important things that ever happened for GOD'S WORK!
Let me give you the background facts first. God originally
