Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ:
Greetings, in Jesus' name! We're sending you this special
letter to announce the plans for holding services on the Day of
Pentecost.
Pentecost this year will be observed on Monday, the 10th of
June. Services will be held as usual at the local congregations,
with any special arrangements being made by the various ministers.
If any of you live near enough to the local Churches in various
localities, you should contact the pastor in charge for the time
and place of meetings.
All who are able are urged to attend the services at the
Tabernacle near Gladewater, Texas. There will be services held for
three days at the Tabernacle, beginning with a service Friday
night, the 7th, followed by all-day meetings on the weekly Sabbath,
the 8th, on Sunday, the 9th, and on the Day of Pentecost, Monday,
the 10th of June.
Mr. Norman Smith and Mr. Jon Hill, both ordained ministers,
will be at the Tabernacle to bring the messages during the three-
day meetings.
DIRECTIONS for finding the Tabernacle: For those of you who
have not attended Holy Day meetings at the Tabernacle before, it is
just off Highway 80, which is the main east-west highway between
Shreveport and Dallas. The private road, leading to the Tabernacle
grounds is approximately 2 miles east of Big Sandy, Texas, and 9
miles west of Gladewater, Texas. There are small auto courts,
called "Tuck's", and a service station just at the entrance. The
road is marked with our own sign reading: "Private Grounds, Radio
Church of God Tabernacle."
As you should plan to remain the entire three days, you should
make arrangements for a place to stay. Bring either a tent to
pitch on the Tabernacle Grounds, or a trailer house or you may stay
in any one of the numerous motels which are located along the high-
ways. There are enough motels within easy driving distance of the
Tabernacle to accommodate everyone attending the services during
the season of Pentecost, with the average motel charges of 5 to 8
dollars per day. There are some others which are slightly less
expensive in the area as well.
