PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, May 23, 1980
MPC REPORT {Continued from page 8.)
Page 11
Mail for the month of May 1980 is up over 34 compared to May of last
year--and mail for the year to date is up 12.3% as compared to 1979. As
of May 19th 793,762
tters have been received. (This includes both
Pasadena and Tucson mail).
Much of this good response is due to the recent renewal stitch-in
envelope in the May PLAIN TRUTH, as well as other cards in the GOOD
NEWS, booklets, etc. Mr. Herbert Armstrong's member/co-worker letter is
bringing in a fine response, with many good comments from our members
and co-workers. The first returns from Mr. Arrnstrong
1
s S.E.P. letter
are also beginning to come in, and festival applications are corning in
strong.
Mr. Armstrong's firm leadership and direction in the Church has certainly
given a new sense of confidence and optimism to the entire mailing list.
We definitely see this reflected in the mail and the overall results of
the various programs that have been instituted. All in all, the mail
picture is healthy and strong.

MAIL COMMENTS
Many letters received this week highlighted anticipation for the Feast,
appreciation of the G-II trips and changed lives through our various
publications.

Anticipation Building in Advance of the Feast
I have just received my Festival Information. It will truly be
the greatest Feast yet!
My prayers are for a successful and in­
spiring time for all the brethren. And I want to thank you all
for your dedicated work and time in God's Work.
--Mrs. R.K., (Matheson, CO)
We have just received the application for
coming Feast of
Tabernacles. We are very happy to hear that Big Sandy is available
this year. We are looking forward to camping again in the Pine
Woods. Thank you, Mr. Armstrong,
making it available. There is
just no joy as camping and fellowshiping with the brethren in the
Pine Woods--it's fantastic!
--Mr.
&
Mrs. B.T. (Kennard, TX)
I am looking forward to a wonderful Feast in Johnson City, Tennessee!
Thanks for a site closer to home. If we had to though, we'd travel
with a prayer and a few fumes in the gas tank and God would get us
anywhere!
--Barbara K. (Chattanooga, TN)
Enclosed please find a money order for my tithe of the tithe to be
put in the fund that pays for the expenses of having services at the
Feast of Tabernacles. It is hard to believe, but each Feast is
better than the last.
