LONDON, June 30, 1960
Dear Co-Workers with Christ:
I am enclosing a copy of my semi-annual letter to all
readers of The PLAIN TRUTH. I want you, also, to have the vital
information I have written in this letter, and now I must also
appraise you of the continuing desperate financial need._
As you probably know, only a very small part of the 250,000
copies of The PLAIN TRUTH--probably read by nearly a million people
--go to those who are Co-Workers, supporting this great work with
their tithes and offerings.
This small family of us who are Co-Workers with Christ in
His work, preparing the way for His glorious coming to establish
World Government and PEACE, have as our responsibility the entire
financial support of this great and fast-expanding world-wide
activity.
I'm sure you know that we never ask the public for money or
financial support over the air. There is no subscription price on
The PLAIN TRUTH. It carries no advertising to bring revenue. All
our Gospel literature goes out FREE. There is no follow-up. There
is only the very brief EXPLANATION, in this semi-annual letter,
that the entire work is financed only by the voluntary
contributions and tithes of Co-Workers--but even this is not a
request for contributions. There is no tuition charge for the
Bible Correspondence Course--with over 25,000 active students who
have passed the tests every four months with a grade above 70.
Do you realize, dear Co-Workers, it is YOUR sacrifice and
generosity in being faithful in paying God's tithes, and liberal in
special offerings besides, that makes all this possible? Today
God's Message is thundered to the world--over all six continents--
through more than TEN MILLION WATTS OF RADIO POWER EVERY WEEK!
Ordinary stations put out only 100, or 500, or 1,000, or 5,000
watts of power. The most powerful allowed in the United States is
50,000 watts. Think what a POWERFUL VOICE God has opened to us,
with a total of TEN MILLION watts per week!
But right now this all-important work is in a really
precarious financial condition. We are having a mighty tight
squeeze to keep going. These are the lean summer months. Many Co-
Workers are not able to get good radio reception during these warm
