mites go in this great worldwide Work, GUIDED and blessed by the
living CHRIST!
Right now, following this difficult month of December, the
Work of God NEEDS a real financial BOOST during January and the
early months of this coming year!
A very few of you do have larger sums -- in four figures
-- and some of you are free to give it outright where CHRIST is
directing, in God's Work. If you have it, but are simply not free
to give it at this time, once again it is necessary to ask if you
will LOAN it so that it may be WORKING, until you need it, under
the guidance of the living CHRIST. But please make all larger
loans on the 5-year basis, legally repayable at not more than 20%
a year -- and I repeat -- I give my word that, should circumstances
arise making it necessary for repayment in any amount over the 20%,
we will accommodate your need just the same as if it were a demand
loan.
I realize fully that only a FEW have such larger sums --
and that is why it is all the more important that those who do take
it to heart and respond. But please do not send as a loan what you
are able to give outright. MANY are simply not able to contribute
more, for God's Work, than the widow's mites -- some not even that.
But ALL can PRAY for the Work. And may I ask you to PRAY also for
the personal safety of my son Garner Ted Armstrong and myself? Our
lives are frequently threatened by some who HATE God's Truth. We
risk our lives daily to carry OUR part. We need your prayers.
With much love, in Jesus' name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
