enthusiasm, interest, deep love! You simply can't know or realize
what an EXPERIENCE it was for us to see and feel such warmth and
interest. Present was a musician and voice teacher, who rushed up
to me before the meeting to tell me how he enjoyed Beverly's
singing on the program, and how lovely a voice she has. Several
asked if she were with me so they could hear her sing in person.
One woman came to us after the meeting and said they had named her
little grand-daughter, born three months ago, after Beverly.
These audiences have been terribly sobered by the Message of
warning I have felt impelled by God to deliver to them. They fully
realize its tragic seriousness. They have seen and FELT world war,
here. But they show appreciation and gratitude hard to believe for
God's Word, and His revelations of what's coming, and offer of
personal protection and security thru it all.
Next week we hold three meetings in London---then a quick
three-day trip by plane to Rome and back, and then we board the
America for home!
Co-Workers, I have now to call on every one of you to PRAY,
deeply and earnestly, that God will send us by next year a larger
number of consecrated, called, highly intelligent, able young men
with qualities of leadership, to be trained in Ambassador College
for His ministry. THE HARVEST TRULY IS PLENTIOUS---BUT THE
LABORERS ARE TOO FEW! We need more Co-Worker laborers too, in
order to finance the MULTIPLIED greater work that lies ahead to be
done. God is now moving RAPIDLY to expand His work to this great
British nation, and to Europe, and to ALL THE WORLD.
My eyes have surely been opened by this visit to Britain and
to Europe! I had no conception of the vast work that God is
opening to be done thru us over here. It's a far greater work than
I had ever realized---or than YOU have even dreamed! Plans are
being laid. The foundation is being carefully and wisely laid with
God's guidance. Proper papers and permits from the British
government are being issued to allow us to open offices, and
conduct the work from London. A banking connection has been made,
so that now we have one of Britain's strong banks as a reference.
An advertising agency connection has been made. Tentative plans
are laid for preaching the Gospel to all Britain thru newspapers.
One London morning paper has a circulation of almost five million
copies daily---largest on earth. It is delivered and read in all
parts of Britain same day. Putting the Gospel Message into the
form of a newspaper ad is surely something NEW---never done before.
But it will reach even far more people than we do over Radio
Luxembourg! Soon---surely inside a year---we must establish
Churches, and supply them with trained God-called ministers from
Ambassador College, in Belfast, Glasgow, Manchester, and London---
and also soon in Dublin, Birmingham, Edinburgh, and other centers
of population over here. BUT WE DO NOT YET HAVE ENOUGH MEN OF THE
REQUIRED ABILITY! We must pray as never before that God will send
more laborers of His calling for this tremendous responsibility!
We spent two weeks, since my last letter, in France, Germany,
Luxembourg, Holland and Belgium. What we saw there was a
staggering revelation! The French seem still discouraged, more
