Tabernacles 1976 and hearing him talk to us for nearly two hours!"
Surely God has impressed upon your mind the intense need to see per
sonally as many brethren as possible. Your presence there in Pasadena
truly inspires more and more loyalty and unity within the Church as
all the brethren see how God is renewing your strength daily.
So Mr. Armstrong, I thank you for this Ministerial Refresher Program
and for those leading men who taught us faithfully by always stressing
that the subject outlines were gone over and approved by you. May we
all faithfully teach that faith delivered to us all by Jesus Christ
through His chosen apostle!

Mail Processing Student Training Program
Mr. Armstrong has often stressed the value of experience as well as academ
ic studies. This year eight senior Ambassador students are in a special
program to receive practical work experience in the multiple activities of
the Mail Processing Center.
Throughout the school year each man will work fifteen to twenty hours per
week, gaining experience in each of the five major departments--Mail Open
ing, Terminals, WATS, Postal and Personal Correspondence. The latter half
of their work experience will be in Personal Correspondence where they will
read and begin answering some of the letters from people writing for help in
applying God's truth in their lives.
This program is a concentrated version of what senior students in the early
years of Ambassador experienced while working in Mail Reading and Letter
Answering.
It is expected that each man will have a better knowledge of how God's Work
functions as it responds to the people being called through Mr. Armstrong's
broadcasts and The PLAIN TRUTH. And by understanding more about the real
problems that concern people and how to deal with these problems, these
students should be better prepared for the responsibilities they will have
after graduation.
Weekly Letter Comments
This week we selected comments expressing gratitude for the Work's litera
ture. Readers describe how much they have benefitted from the magazines
and booklets.

Work's Literature Has Impact
Receiving your literature has caused me to read and study my Bible as I
should have always been doing. I feel I have learned more in a short
time than in 30 years of classroom and "church" study. I am so grate
ful for every truth learned--but I still have a long way to go. Thank
you so much for your help.
