PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, August 14, 1979
Page 6
FEAST UPDATE
Work toward the 1979 Feast of Tabernacles is rapidly going ahead.
The
Feast Office plans to get the first run of housing confirmations in the
mail by early next week, with 80-90 percent of applications prepared for
the first confirmation run.
Mr. Sherwin McMichael met with Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong Friday, August 10
to discuss many facets of the Festival, including the solidifying of Mr.
Armstrong's personal appearance schedule at several of the U.S. sites this
year.
Mr. Armstrong will announce his schedule in a letter to the ministry
in a future Pastor General's Report.
Mr. Armstrong and Mr. McMichael also discussed the ministerial speaking
schedule, which Mr. Armstrong reviewed for the second time.
Mr. McMichael
says ministers will be notified soon on their duties.
Mr. McMichael added
that the schedule is once again designed to spread the speaking opportuni­
ties to more Church pastors during this year's Feast of Tabernacles.
