I want to get to personally, is to update our booklet written
by Garner Ted and myself on THE WONDERFUL WORLD TOMORROW--WHAT
IT WILL BE LIKE. I want that new edition offered repeatedly
to all PLAIN TRUTH readers.
Another thing I want to do as soon as I can get at it is
to get out a totally NEW revised edition of the Bible CORRESPON-
DENCE COURSE and plug it as hard as we can to get it into the
hands of millions. Still another thing that I can't seem to
find time for, but I want to get done as soon as I can, is to
finish writing VOLUME II of my AUTOBIOGRAPHY.
I don't know whether you have noticed, but I have been doing
a GREAT DEAL more writing lately than I have for the past several
years with articles to write for The PLAIN TRUTH, the WORLDWIDE
NEWS, the ministers' BULLETIN, these monthly co-worker letters,
etc., etc., besides the packed tight schedule of speaking--not
only in our own churches, but to groups like the Rotary Clubs,
Kiwanis, Lions Clubs, etc., etc., and to large audiences in capi-
tol cities around the whole world, so, it is a pretty hard
schedule for one who is "39 going on 38" (I've changed it, you will
notice, from "37 going on 36"). So PLEASE BE PATIENT WITH ME.
I will try to get to these things as soon as I can.
Garner Ted is up at Orr, Minnesota, getting this year's
summer camp for high school age young people underway and he,
too, has a very rigorous schedule to keep up.
So many of you have written me how much you LOVE me and
are so loyally back of me, that I wanted you to know that LOVE
is a TWO-WAY STREET. And my heart is brimful of LOVE for YOU.
And let's thank GOD for His superabundant LOVE for US ALL, and
how He showers on us all the blessings within the heavenly sphere.
I repeat my URGENT request in my last letter that you
continue to PRAY as you have never prayed before, for the growth
of this Work and that God will lay it heavily on the hearts of
new co-workers to come in and join with us in financing God's
Work. Some who are not able to send more than the "widow's two
mites" can, by your urgent and believing PRAYERS, cause others
who are able, to send in UNCOUNTED THOUSANDS. You have no idea
what real, heartrending, earnest, believing and continuous PRAYER
can do, until you REALLY DO IT!
Good-bye for now, my beloved children in the Lord.
With deepest love, in Jesus' name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
P.S. I forgot to tell you that Mr. Rice also gave me the good
news that new co-workers are now being added, new members are
being baptized, the number of requests from non-members for visits
from our ministers is increasing. GOD'S WORK IS GROWING. Let's
get it growing even faster and greater--by our PRAYERS!
