Dear Co-Workers in the Most
IMPORTANT WORK ON EARTH:
This letter will have to be short and to the point. Only
three weeks remain in this year. It has been a very difficult
year. It has been the second, and most difficult of a two-
year nationwide economic RECESSION. Hundreds of business firms
have failed -- gone out of business. And we are in the year's
MOST DIFFICULT MONTH!
By making a number of cutbacks -- issuing The PLAIN TRUTH
and TOMORROW'S WORLD only every OTHER month, cutting many radio
stations from seven to one broadcast a week, and many other
cutbacks -- we have kept this great Work alive and in sound
financial condition -- AND GROWING in spite of cutbacks.
For 37 years, up until this two-year recession, the scope
and POWER of this Work increased an average of 30% every year,
year after year. THAT MUST BE A RECORD FIRST! I have never
heard of ANY institution or organization -- whether commercial
business or non-commercial operation -- that has grown that
consistently, with that large an annual increase, over a
35-year stretch.
The past two years we didn't grow 30%. BUT THE WORK DID
GROW around 12%, and even that is AMAZING GROWTH considering
the national economy dip!
But now -- RIGHT IN THE YEAR'S MOST DIFFICULT MONTH -- we
must go back to publishing The PLAIN TRUTH and TOMORROW'S WORLD
every month -- and restoring The WORLD TOMORROW broadcast to
SEVEN times a week on all those stations. Besides, VERY
IMPORTANT NEW STATIONS ARE OPENING THEIR DOORS FOR US -- for both
the radio and the TV program!
Even with our cutback, this year THOUSANDS OF LIVES were
CHANGED -- converted -- have received the begettal of ETERNAL
LIFE in the Kingdom of GOD! How much is THAT worth? And other
MILLIONS have heard the TRUTH with a great impact of POWER --
NEVER was the true Gospel proclaimed to SO MANY in such POWER,
WORLDWIDE!
WHAT A PRIVILEGE -- what a BLESSING -- to be chosen by the
