being a part of the work of God's great Church. We continually
refer to the notes and will no doubt use them for months to come.
We would therefore like to thank you and your team for all your
efforts in giving us a true "refreshment." Regards also to Mr.
Armstrong, who makes it possible.
Comments From Monthly Church Reports
From Australia
John and Gwen White
MELBOURNE (EAST), VIC--BILL BRADFORD: The PLAIN TRUTH newsstands
have really taken off.
In the Melbourne area we are placing
about twenty new stands each month. The members are very excited
and support the programme 100%. These past few months have been
very successful in terms of spiritual growth in members.
ADELAIDE, SA--KERRY GUBB: We have noticed a definite trend with
waiting room programme phone-call recipients saying they already
know about The PLAIN TRUTH. It wasn't this way when we started,
but now people seem to be far more aware of who and what we are.
Thi� is encouraging our telephone operators a great deal.
BUNDABERG, QLD--MARK GULLY:
I have found that quite a large
number of people have questions they want to ask in the weekly
Bible studies concerning things they have come across in their
personal Bible study. It is refreshing to see people getting
their noses into the Bible.
From Asia
INDIA (SOUTH)--MOHAN JAYASEKERA: The radio broadcast from Radio
Ceylon is being heard loud and clear throughout the area. A num
ber of members are having trials regarding the Sabbath, with the
greater pressure coming from employers. Many single members are
experiencing pressure from their families to marry outside the
Church. In both these matters they express commitment to do what
God wills. They request prayers on their behalf in these areas
of life.
From the United States
SAN ANTONIO, TX--GREG SARGENT: The church seems very stable at
this time. I attribute this to the strong direction we are con
stantl y receiving from Headquarters--especially from Mr. Arm
strong s tapes. The repetition of his messages is finally sink
ing in and the prophecy sermons help us concentrate more on the
work of God's Church;
DENISON, TX--CHUCK CALAHAN:
Mr. Armstrong's tapes on prophecy
were excellent!
You had to listen closely lest you miss some
thing--the pace was so quick!
MIAMI, FL--AL KERSHA:
Prospective member activity continues to
be high in this area when compared to previous months and years.
