Beside a combination filling station and cafe on the north
side of Highway # 80, you will see our sign "Private Grounds, Radio
Church of God Tabernacle" and you may drive straight north on this
road until you arrive at the tabernacle, completely cut off from
the view of outsiders.
Those who come by train or bus can get taxi service at
Gladewater, and possibly at Big Sandy, or, if coming by bus, it is
possible the driver would let you off right at the grounds, though
it would be better to go first to a hotel in Gladewater or Big
Sandy making sure of your place to stay before you go to the
tabernacle.
ACCOMMODATIONS will not be too difficult to find at this time
of the year. There are a few cabins near the grounds at the little
cafe just mentioned, but unless you have already made reservations,
they probably are filled. The name of the establishment is "Tucks
Cabins". There are motels in Gladewater along the highway and near
Longview. Also there is a good hotel in Longview, about twenty
miles from the tabernacle.
The better motels, first-class, cost from about five to eight
dollars per day for two people, and other cabins are available
which cost less. Hotel Longview rates, a strictly first-class
hotel, are four to six dollars single and six to eight dollars
double. I STRONGLY ADVISE PLANNING TO ARRIVE EARLY so you can
find adequate sleeping accommodations. We have no facilities for
making reservations for you, make yours as soon as possible. The
evening meal will be served at the tabernacle on Sunday evening
before the Passover at 5:00 P.M.
Don't forget brethren that God has commanded all of us to
attend these annual Holy Days for our own good. It isn't that God
"needs" something from us, but that we need everything from Him,
therefore, God has commanded us to attend His Holy Days to keep us
ever mindful of the great plan that He is working out here below
and to knit and bind His Church, the Body of Christ, together in a
bond of love and unity and fellowship. Those who have been
privileged to attend in the past have said what a wonderful time of
rejoicing and spiritual feasting it is to be able to hear so many
sermons from God's called servants, and to fellowship and talk with
others who believe in the truth of God from all over the United
States! It is truly one of the most wonderful experiences in a
Christian's life. Make every possible effort you can to attend the
Feast Days at Gladewater, and go to God in prayer with any problems
you may have, trusting Him, IN FAITH to supply the answer! God
bless all of you! We shall look forward to seeing you at the
tabernacle in Texas.
Sincerely in Jesus' Name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
