to meet it!
But it left us in a MIGHTY TIGHT SQUEEZE, and WITHOUT ANY
RESERVES. We now have to pay WEEKLY, and right on the dot. Any
week we lack the money, WE'LL BE PUT OFF THE AIR. This is, in a
way, an even more serious situation than a month ago.
As I write, the income has been dropping down, way below
quota the past three or four days! SO THIS IS A NEW EMERGENCY MORE
SERIOUS THAN EVER! We approach the tail end of the month when our
Co-Workers seem to lag, and the income drops alarmingly below the
quota to pay for these broadcasts.
For thirty days now I have had to CALL A VITAL HALT on all
repairs and work on our new properties. We have OUTGROWN our
present facilities. We cannot move into our new classroom
building, Ambassador Hall unless we spend several thousand dollars
making changes to bring it up to building codes, as well as a new
large two-story office building that has come to us, but cannot use
it until it is brought up to codes. We are going to just have to
let these buildings lie dormant for a few months, until we get the
work of God in better financial condition, and on a safe footing so
we won't be thrown off the air! Right now we are "skating on
mighty thin ice"! It is a perilous situation!
Co-Workers! I KNOW you'll PRAY over this, as I am doing, and
make the needed sacrifice; ask that sufficient funds will keep
coming in to KEEP US ON THE AIR every week! Let's all try to SEND
IN A LITTLE MORE EACH WEEK OR MONTH THAN WE HAVE BEEN DOING! God
bless you for it! God has never failed us---and I know He won't
let you fail Him!
With deep love and gratitude,
