Newsletter Generatin� Good Return:

featuring the Worldwide Church of God was sent with the "Co-Worker
Newsletter" last month.
Three booklets were offered:
Where Is God's
True Church?,
This Is The Worldwide Church of God, and Which Day Is
The Christian Sabbath?
Most importantly, a visit request was also
offered.
So far, we've received 527 visit requests.
We feel the response was helped by a special article featuring
excerpts from Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong's address to the 1978
Ministerial Conference.
The article was titled:
"Not The Work Of
Man -- It's The Work Of Christ."

which expand on the subjects summarized therein.
The international
areas will have to edit out some of these chainings due to the inavail
ability of some of the literature advertised.
Those responsible for
international chaining and editing should check the manuscript care-
