Dear Co-Workers with Christ:
Here I am, just loaded with news, and again PAST DUE with
this letter. I returned from my rest and fast on the Oregon Coast
to find not only the crisis we were in, but matters needing my
personal attention piled so high I wonder when I'll get caught up.
I'm overjoyed that I can report we have weathered this crisis
---SO FAR, though this work faces a very serious need at the
moment! We still could be put off the air, unless we meet this
need.
As I wrote in my last letter, dear Co-Workers, We CANNOT EVER
LET DOWN---not for a single day! God has not called us to travel
a soft and easy road in His work---but the road of FAITH, beset by
constant trials and tests and crises.
God did not intend life to be free from having to meet these
things. We here at the headquarters of God's great work have not
only the load and responsibility of the work to carry, but our own
personal trials as well. Right now we are grieved and sobered by
the sudden accidental death of the wife of one of our ministers,
Dr. C. Paul Meredith, Director of the Ambassador College Bible
Correspondence Course. This tragedy occurred at a time when Dr.
Meredith is somewhere in the Middle-East or in India, half way
around the earth, and there has been no way that we could locate or
reach him with the terrible news. He and Mr. Herman L. Hoeh,
Executive Editor of The PLAIN TRUTH, are on a tour of historic
research into these lands for the summer. They had written us that
we would be unable to communicate with them until they return to
Europe, some two weeks hence. This is going to be a terrible blow,
and an irreplaceable loss to Dr. Meredith, and I wish all you
Co-Workers would join us here in praying for him. His wife was a
great help to him in his very important work.
Yet regardless of trials, tests, or personal loss, WE MUST
ALL KEEP RIGHT ON WITH THE WORK OF GOD, more intensively than ever.
Complete happiness, with NO sorrows or griefs, will soon be ours
for ALL ETERNITY, in the glorious KINGDOM OF GOD. Meanwhile, we
must keep on getting this GOOD NEWS to more and more millions of
people, all around the world! You have YOUR part---each of us has
a vital and important part!
