Letters to Mr. Armstrong From Children
I have always wanted to see you eye to eye {Mr. Armstrong). At the
Feast I saw you, but not eye to eye. I will never forget to pay my
tithe. And I will never forget you because you are the one God
has sent to help us come into God's body. And I am trying to overĀ­
come all my sins. We do not have a T.V. but I am glad we don't,
because every time I watch it I have nightmares. I like to watch
it sometimes but not always. I am going to cheer for a team in
Eugene. We are behind you in every step you make.

I was just watching 60 MINUTES and how they were saying that you
spent money from our tithes wastefully, but I know that God says
to give tithes so that is what you do. It takes money to go to
places and preach. There are so many people that you have enough
money to do that safely and with pleasure. I am prouu to have such
a fine church that pleases God. Please keep up the good sermons.

My name is Wade Edward Brown. I am 10 years old. I live in Eunice,
N.M. and I go to Sabbath services in Midland, Texas and Hobbs, N.M.
My mother and father have been going to church for ten years. I
hope you come to Big Sandy, Texas for the Feast this year because
I would like to meet you. I have one brother and one sister. I am
glad you are the Apostle of God's Church. I like you very much. I
wish I could meet your family.
Wade Brown--10 yrs. (Eunice, N.M.)
Enclosed is my first tithe for God's Work around the world. Our
family prays for you every day. Thank you for opening Imperial
School. I am nine years old.
