PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, MARCH 18, 1983
PAGE 10
Mr. Armstrong says things that other ministers are not saying.
I'm a young minister and I've been in this occupation for only
two years. Would you please send me anything you can that would

J.H. (Florida)

excellent sermon material.
C.W. (Jeanerette, LA)

NEW HEADQUARTERS TELEPHONE SYSTEM
A new telephone system has been purchased and installed
on the Pasadena Campus. Therefore a new number for the
campus has been assigned by the Pacific Telephone
Company.
The new number is (213) 304-6000. This replaces (213}
577-5000.
The 800 service has not been changed--it remains (800)
423-4464 for ministerial use and (800) 423-4444 for the
Telephone Response/Mail Processing Center requests.
We will be announcing some further changes in our tele­
phone usage in the near future. Please bear with us
during this time of change.
