PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, FEBRUARY 24, 1984
PAGE 3
Churches and the sermon tapes undoubtably are great contributing
factors.
FT. MYERS, FL--DANIEL BIERER: One of the brethren was diagnosed
several weeks ago as having malignant cancer. After prayer and
anointing, he had further tests done. No sign of cancer was
found. Needless to say, we all rejoice over God's answer to our
prayers!
BANGOR, ME--LEONARD HOLLADAY:
Trials are still affecting the
brethren. One man was hit in the eye with a piece of metal.
After anointing he had the metal removed and his eyeball
collapsed. The doctor reinflated it but there was little chance
for the man's sight to return. It has completely healed and he
has normal vision.
CHICO, CA--MARC SEGALL: I wanted to comment on how much we ap­
preciate the PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT.
I've been reading the
pastor's comments from the other church areas to my congregation.
The brethren expressed appreciation for being able to learn about
the similar blessings and trials other congregations experience.
--Joe Tkach, Ministerial Services

"WORLD TOMORROW" Telecast Produces Four Record Weekends
Recently, four consecutive "WORLD TOMORROW" telecasts, dealing with soon­
coming prophetic events, brought in a total of 47,699 calls. These four
programs resulted in the first, third, fourth and fifth highest weekend

Armstrong makes sense--he doesn't beat around the bush," is a typical
remark. Viewers are particularly intrigued by his clear presentation of
biblical prophecy and his message of hope about God's future government on
earth.
