PLAIN TRUTH EDITORIAL UPDATE My family and I·had a very interesting
and profitable feast in Great Britain. We were treated with great
hospitality over there and especially enjoyed renewing some old acquain-·
tances at both feast sites where we attended. As always we discussed
the PT and the other Church literature at length with several individuals.
Plans are underway to dramatically increase the circulation of the PT
in Britain once again. Frank Brown has some exciting plans for the
development of the Work in Britain as well as Black Africa.
We are presently working hard to produce the kind of PT Mr. Arnrstrong
wants. I have been given a lengthy set of guidelines as well as other
oral instruction from Mr. Armstrong directly. In some cases the latter
have been passed on to me by Mr. Rader.
The December issue will be the last of the "old" style PTs. Beginning
with January, and especially with the 45th anniversary issue in February,
you'll see a different kind of PT. The look will be more conservative,
dignified and will contain articles of a more biblical orientation.
Mr. Armstrong himself will have four articles in the January issue. He
is working very hard on the writing aspects of his ministry as I'm sure
you recognize by now. Mr. Armstrong is also at work with a number of
other writing projects and I'm sure you'll be hearing about those in the
pages of this Pastor's Report as they develop.
We, like Mr. Armstrong, sincerely wish to make the PT "the best magazine
on earth." We are working toward that end. The whole staff realizes
the need to have the PT reflect the thinking of Mr. Armstrong as accur­
ately as possible. We are endeavoring to bring that about. We would
all appreciate your suggestions, support and especially your prayers
in accomplishing this. Here is a list of contents for the January PT
as it presently stands:
