Queen Mary in Mid-Atlantic
July 16, 1956
Dear Co-Workers with Christ in America:
GREETINGS from the Queen Mary in Mid-Atlantic! We are now
returning home to America after a very profitable and successful
trip through the Holy Land, Europe and Britain.
While on this trip which has been so vital for the Work of
God, I have been receiving an entirely NEW concept of the future of
this work---which I outlined in the previous letter to you
Co-Workers. Since that last letter GOD HAS BEEN MOVING IN A
BREATH-TAKING MANNER TO PROVIDE THE FACILITIES FOR TRAINING
MUCH-NEEDED FUTURE EVANGELISTS!
As I last wrote, the whole future of God's Work has taken on
on A NEW pattern. The Eternal has been revealing that pattern to
us on this trip. The Work must---from here on---intensify activity
not only in America, but in Britain, Australia and South America--
in fact, in ALL THE WORLD!
The imperative need NOW is for large numbers of called,
consecrated, fully trained, competent evangelists of personality
and speaking power within four or five years to hold every night
evangelistic campaigns---to attract, hold and MOVE large audiences!
The HARVEST IS PLENTEOUS, but the laborers are TOO FEW. Therefore,
I asked you to pray that more laborers be sent us for training.
Things have been happening fast in answer to your prayers.
God is moving to supply the need! Applications to Ambassador
College already indicate the largest incoming freshman class---but
we are outgrowing facilities! SUDDENLY, as if by miracle, the
large adjacent estate of Hulett C. Merritt, the wealthiest man on
the Pacific coast, who died early this year, has become available!
His fabulous estate contains large, magnificently landscaped
grounds, together with a 54-room mansion including utility rooms.
The building will provide adequate classrooms sufficient to
accommodate the anticipated future growth of the College, enabling
us to convert the present combination classroom-library-assembly
building into an enlarged and adequate library.
This more than DOUBLES the present area of the campus! And
the estate provides ground for erecting future buildings when
needed.
