body, excluding the U.S. This cosmopolitan flavor is in many ways both
interesting and enriching to all of the students. It is good to see how
others from different parts of the world live and think. The different
cultures represented by the thirty different areas give the students more
of an international outlook. About one third (31%) of all A.C. students at
Pasadena are international students. Here is a list of the countries and
territories which are now represented at Ambassador College in Pasadena:
Australia
Austria
Barbados
Bermuda
Britain
Cameroon
Canada
Colombia
Denmark
France
Guyana
Haiti
Iran
Italy
Jamaica
Mexico
Netherlands
New Zealand
Nigeria
Philippines
Puerto Rico

Yesterday, we received a few advance copies of the new ENVOY which is
scheduled to be distributed at the Feast of Tabernacles. (The price will be
$25.)
This deluxe edition of the ENVOY is being offered to all the
ministers and members, but at present we do not plan to offer the next three
editions of the ENVOY to the ministry or the membership of the Church. Mr.
Armstrong thought that due to the cost and time necessary to produce a
deluxe edition available to the entire Church, it would be best to produce
one every fourth year. Thus much less expensive editions of the ENVOY for
1984, 1985, and 1986 will be produced and distributed only to the students
of both campuses, members of the Faculty, the College Administration,
Council of Elders, Directors of overseas offices and a few others.
My wife and I are planning to be in Springfield, Rolla, and Lake of the
Ozarks, Missouri, during the Feast of Trumpets and Sabbath following. We
are to be in Corpus Christi, Texas for the Day of Atonement. (My oldest
son, Bruce David, will be married in Corpus Christi right after Atonement,
and asked me to officiate at his wedding.) Then we will return to Pasadena
for a couple of days before leaving for the Feast of Tabernacles. We are
certainly looking forward to this coming Feast, and I'm sure that all of you
will also be looking forward to the fellowship and fun with God's people
during this exciting season of the yearl

How Ministers of Other Churches Use Our Publications
Among the many readers and subscribers to our publications are ministers
from various denominations. Many of them write in and tell us how much they
have been helped, enlightened and inspired by Mr. Armstrong's teachings.
Some incorporate the truths they have learned into their sermons or classes
or assign the literature as reading material. A few have even encouraged
members of their congregations to become regular subscribersl
Following
are some of the comments we have received:
Thank you for the unique PLAIN TRUTH magazine which has been comĀ­
