work on this during the present year.
Due to the tremendous increase in expense of sending out
the broadcast over the great major ABC radio net-work, and the
super-power stations in other parts of the world, and the increase
in size (and therefore expense) of Ambassador College, we have not
been able to do ANY further work on the big Tabernacle since the
Feast of Tabernacles last fall, except what little Bro. Hammer and
a few other brethren there have been able to do themselves. We
have not even as yet been able to finish paying off the current
indebtedness for the rush work done the few weeks prior to the
Feast of Tabernacles. NEVER have we had such a tight squeeze,
financially, as we are now having in the struggle to hold on to
this great net-work program until enough NEW listeners from it
become co-workers to help us carry the financial burden. BUT WE
ARE REACHING TWICE AS MANY PEOPLE in the United States, besides
millions more in foreign lands around the world!
God's opening these great doors to send His Message out
world wide, and the sudden awakening to the FANTASTIC DANGER of the
hydrogen bomb, and the terrifying new poison gasses, means just one
thing----THE END OF THIS WORLD IS A LOT CLOSER THAN WE THOUGHT----
it's later than we thought! We have little time left to complete
the task God has given us.
DIRECTIONS for finding the Tabernacle: The Tabernacle
grounds are just off the Highway #80, 8 miles west of Gladewater,
2 miles east of Big Sandy (about 100 miles east of Dallas). At
this point beside our private road leading to the Tabernacle, you
will see our sign: "PRIVATE GROUNDS, Radio Church of God
Tabernacle," beside the cabins and restaurant at this little
junction. Those who come by train or bus can get taxi service at
Gladewater, possibly at Big Sandy, or if by bus it's possible the
driver would let you off at the grounds---tho it would be better to
first go to a hotel in Gladewater or Big Sandy. There are a few
cabins beside the grounds on the highway, but unless you make
reservations they probably will be filled. There are motels on
both sides of, and in Gladewater and others on the highway near
Longview, and a good hotel at Longview, about 20 miles from the
Tabernacle. The better motels, first class, cost $5 to $8 per day
for two people, and other cabins, not so nice, cost less. Hotel
Longview rates, a strictly first class hotel, are, if they have not
changed from last year, $4 to $6 single, and $6 to $8 double. I
ADVISE PLANNING TO ARRIVE EARLY, so you can find sleeping
accommodations. We have no facilities for making reservations for
you. Evening meal will be served at the Tabernacle on Friday
evening before the Passover, at 5:PM.
Keep PRAYING EARNESTLY for the financing of the work, and
I shall look forward to seeing you at the Tabernacle.
Sincerely, in Jesus' name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
