ENOUGH MONEY TO KEEP UP THESE REGULAR DAILY AND WEEKLY EXPENSES!
This initial $25,000 production expense, however, WILL PAY
COMPLETELY FOR THE PRODUCTION EXPENSE FOR THE FIRST 18 PROGRAMS!
This must all be done in advance, starting in less than two weeks,
in order to affect this saving. Thereafter production costs will
be even less, per program. Otherwise the very effective and
powerful program we are planning would cost around $3,000 per
program production expense. Thus we are saving at least $2,000 per
program in production expense.
Now we have already set aside, in a special fund, more than
$7,000 toward this initial $25,000 production cost for the first 18
programs. We must have not less than $15,000 of this initial cost
in less than two weeks! We must have the other $10,000 on hand 30
days later---all of it before we can cut off the expense of the
Sunday-ONLY radio broadcasting.
So YOU, dear Co-Workers, have YOUR ordeal cut out for YOU,
the same as I---if this huge undertaking is to succeed! It is
going to take super-human effort! YOU can't leap forward to do
YOUR part without going to God in prayer for EXTRA HELP! Ask Him
to MAKE IT POSSIBLE for you to double, or triple the usual
offerings these next two weeks! WE MUST HAVE, now, not only
another cloudburst of widows' mites (and they help and are needed
as NEVER before!)---but unless SOME of you can send in large
amounts---from one to several thousand dollars---it appears
impossible to make it!
This is the BIGGEST TEST that we ever faced! Co-Workers, we
CAN do it, if we set our hearts to it, and PRAY, and SACRIFICE! We
have to do it!---We MUST do it!---and by faith in God, I know we
WILL do it!
CO-WORKERS, I have to call on you in Jesus' name to DEDICATE
YOUR LIVES TO THIS MONUMENTAL TASK BEFORE US! We have to DEVOTE
ourselves to it! We now have to get under the burden TOGETHER! I
can't do it alone. I can't even do my own part without praying
believingly for HELP AND STRENGTH FROM GOD. You can't do YOUR part
without God's help! We have a GREAT GOD to go to. He is able! Go
to Him in PRAYER! Our GREATEST VICTORY in the history of our work
for Him is JUST AHEAD! We can,---we must---WE WILL! God bless
you.
With love, in Jesus' name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
P.S.---The management of XEG and XERB has just notified us, by
telephone, that THEY PLAN TO CANCEL US OFF THE AIR IMMEDIATELY,
because there hasn't been enough money to keep the station paid up.
I told them this letter was being mailed to you, and prevailed on
them to hold off just a few days, to allow you Co-Workers to rush
funds to us in time to save these stations for us. We also are
behind with XELO, and in danger of being put off that station, too.
