four trips to their factory in Columbus, Nebraska. I have had to
sign PERSONAL responsibility for these payments, as well as the
Church responsibility. And in turn I have assumed this tremendous
responsibility thru faith in GOD--that He will lay it on YOUR
HEARTS to back me in this, THAT WE MAY CONTINUE TO MEET EVERY
PAYMENT ON TIME!
Now DO NOT FORGET! Payments from now on are 50% larger
than originally scheduled. We have pledges for only about $12,000
per month. That means every one of us will have to try to keep
sending in, EVERY MONTH, half again MORE than pledged, if possible
--or that those who have not pledged special monthly payments will
have to make up this difference. REMEMBER, this special BUILDING
FUND offering must be IN ADDITION to regular tithes and offerings
for GOD'S WORK of GETTING OUT THE GOSPEL, and of maintaining our
churches and ministers. It must be a SPECIAL monthly offering,
OVER AND ABOVE regular tithes and regular offerings for the regular
work.
Brethren, I believe GOD IS PLEASED with the way His
Church, as a whole, has responded for His big Tabernacle up to now.
I am personally very grateful to you all. I know God will
abundantly bless you all. But since the Festival the SPECIAL
OFFERINGS for the Tabernacle Fund have been falling off! LET'S ALL
TRY TO INCREASE THEM A LITTLE IF WE CAN! And THANK YOU IN JESUS'
NAME!
With deep love and gratitude,
Herbert W. Armstrong
