PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, DECEMBER
2 ,
1986
Some viewers feel uncomfortable making a telephone call.
They would rather write.
Some people may wish to make donations when they request
literature.
Individuals sometimes have further questions on the
subject matter discussed on a telecast. They may prefer
to ask these questions by mail rather than by phone.
Viewers Receive Literature When Promised Recently, we again checked to
see if literature requested by viewers reaches them within the four-week
period we promise.
According to our Mail Monitor system, most areas in the continental
United States do receive literature within four weeks. Some areas get
the literature in three weeks, while a few others require a little more
than four.
Our operators always inform callers to expect their literature in about
four weeks. This allows us to send literature by the less expensive
third-class mail, which we have done for decades. Using third-class
postage saves the Work hundreds of thousands of dollars each year..
Japanese Subscribers Circulation
of
.The Plain Truth" in Japan has now
reached
11,550.
This means that our Japanese subscriber list is now
840
percent larger than it was at this time last year. The enormous increase
is due to the
PT
advertisements placed in various Japanese magazines.
Following is a letter of gratitude from one of our Japanese subscribers:
Your literature and magazines are a floodgate to better
understanding the Bible and man's salvation. They are so
thought-provoking and they speak with such authority that I
have come to both love and respect God with great regard.
This has enormously enriched
my
life, for I now know that I
must strive my best to adhere to
God's
ways.

.Autobiographym
Well
Received Since
Hr.
Armstrong's "Autobiography" was
sent to co-workers around Feast time, many dozens have written to tell us
of the impact the book has had on their lives. Following are some of
their comments:
I am reading the book on Mr. Armstrong's life. It is the
greatest book
I
have ever read, next to the Bible. It is like
Mr.
Armstrong is talking to me in person.
