PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, APRIL 18, 1986
PAGE 5
observe these Spring Holy Days we must be examining ways to draw closer to
God in every facet of our lives. For those of us in the ministry, that
includes examining how we do God's Work.
As we become more unified
through submission to Christ's will, Be will bless our efforts even more
abundantly.
Let's begin to think now about this responsibility of
& omoting family unity.
It is one ofthe most urgent needs of God's
urchin this age.
Questions on Calculating the Boly Calendar Recently, many local pastors
received an unsolicited and unsigned document from a source titled
"Promise Liberty�• This letter addressed an alleged discrepancy in the
Church's use of the Holy Calendar and calculation of the month in which
Passover occurs.
Since some pastors have received questions regarding
this subject, we are making available a brief write-up that explains the
false claims of this document. If you would like a copy, please contact
Church Administration.

Prayer Opdates Carrol Miller would like to convey his appreciation to his
fellow ministers and wives and hundreds of brethren for their prayers,
cards, flowers and encouragement during the long illness of his wife
Peggy. Death came at about 10: 15 Monday night, April 14. Peggy was a
wonderful example of courage and faithfulness to all of us and was able to
assure the family of her love early in the evening before she fell asleep.
She will have the complete healing she firmly believed God promises in the
next moment of her consciousness, when Christ returns.
I know all of you have been praying for Mr. Elijah Chukwudi. Mr. Frank
Brown reports: "Lateef Edalere informed us on Sunday [April 13] that Mr.
Elijah Chukwudi died earlier that same morning. He had appeared to make
some remarkable improvement during the last two months but had a relapse
about two weeks ago and began to suffer increasing pain. He lapsed into
unconsciousness early Sunday morning and died about an hour later. Mr.
Edalere is looking after all of the funeral arrangements."
Please
remember Mrs. Chukwudi and her three children in your prayers.
