GRAND JUNCTION, CO--RON MILLER:
Change on make-up seems to be
well understood and received.
Mr. Armstrong's detailed and
caring explanation helped a great deal.
AUSTIN, TX--HAROLD J. RHODES: The brethren continue to support
Mr.
Armstrong as he follows Christ's lead in cleaning up the
Church. As far as I can tell, there have been no problems about
the decision on make-up.
MOUNTAIN VIEW, AR--TOM BLACKWELL:
Brethren were enthusiastic
about make-up decision--no problems.
They are fellowshipping
more after services.
CHAMPAIGN, IL--RANDY HOLM:
By and large, ladies (and men) are
accepting the change on make-up very well. To most it is just a
matter of readjusting.
MURFREESBORO, TN--DARRIS McNEELY:
Everyone taking the make-up
decision very well. Those who had questions have settled them
and are "on track."
FT. WAYNE, IN--STEPHEN SMITH: Everyone seems to be trying even
harder since the Feast and the Church seems to be even more
united. The recent sermons given by Mr. Armstrong have prodded
many people to get busy and make sure they are on the right track
with Mr. Armstrong as Christ guides him.
MELBOURNE, FL--CRAIG L. BACHELLER:
Everyone really appreciated
the visit we had with Mr. Waterhouse. They are still buzzing
with what he had to say. Church is stable, and they are making
real strides to overcome and grow.
CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO/PADUCAH, KY--JOHN CAFOUREK:
Bible study
attendance has reached an all-time high--77% of average Sabbath
service attendance in Cape Girardeau and 82% in Paducah. Most of
the brethren are extremely well-pleased with the intensified and
positive direction of all facets of God's Work.
The excellent
articles appearing in the GN, PT, and YOUTH 82 magazines are
being very well received.
MICHIGAN CITY, IN--RAND MILLICH:
The economic conditions are
still affecting the area. The majority are still working, but
some have had their hours cut back. Others are having to work
several part-time jobs. some are having to fight discouragement.
These problems help the Church realize how much we need to rely
on God and HIS help!
LAFAYETTE, LA--KARL BEYERSDORFER: Have made almost 2,000 phone
calls for PT Waiting Room Program last year, with 52% success in
getting new subscriptions placed in waiting rooms.
PORTSMOUTH, OH--DAVE TREYBIG: The Church is doing well. The PT
distribution program has been very successful and more people are
volunteering their help to the program.
Thanks for the tapes
from Mr. Armstrong!
