GREENSBORO, NC--BOB LEAGUE:
Mr. Armstrong's visit to Charlotte was
very encouraging to all of us. We have been praying that he would visit
our area. Many, many favorable comments on his physical appearance and
powerful sermon.
CONCORD, NH--DAN ROGERS: Everyone appreciated Mr. Armstrong's visit.
It's always a real boost to have him come by--his enthusiasm is con
tagious! We very much enjoyed his visit with us and wish he could have
stayed longer. People traveled here from all over New England to hear
him for the third and fourth times.

COLDWATER, MI--KEN WILLIAMS: PT distribution is just getting off the
ground.
We now have 16 people involved in distributing 1750 PT's.
We've requested an increase of 2,250 for a total of 4,000 to be dis
tributed by October. We presently have 35 outlets. Enthusiasm is run
ning high for the program.
PITTSBURGH (WEST), PA--DON J. LAWSON: The refresher program helps in
two definite ways. It helped me to have HQ material for sermons and
assures us that we are all speaking the same thing. This gives us a
renewed zeal for the Work in every way. Secondly, it gives the members
the anticipation for material from HQ through the minister. Many have
said how much they are looking forward to "gleaning" what we were
given.

AMBASSADOR COLLEGE UPDATE
As of this moment, we have 489 full-time students enrolled in Ambassador.
Full-time students carry a class load of twelve hours (12 units) or more per
semester.
In addition to the 489 "full-time" students, we have 11 students, classed
as "part-time" who are taking three or more classes, but whose class hours
add up to less than 12 per semester. This makes a total of 500 students-
the limit set by Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong.
Some time ago, Mr. Armstrong said that we did not need to count among the
500-student limit those part-time students who are only taking� or two
classes. We have nine such students (at last count) who are taking only one
or two classes and are enrolled in the B.A. program.
Then there are 49 students (includes spouses of married students, faculty
wives, headquarters employees, etc.) who are taking only one or two classes
at Ambassador, but are not enrolled in the B.A. program.
