all the ministry worldwide, the position of director of the Inter
national Division has obviously been eliminated. Leslie L. McCullough
therefore has been reassigned to the Vancouver, B.C. office to head
the Canadian Work where he will supervise activities under headquarters'
direction. Bob Morton, director of the New Zealand area, who had been
named in March to direct the Canadian Work, will now remain in New
Zealand in his original responsibility.
Mr. Armstrong has also named Brian Knowles to be Editorial Co
ordinator for Church publications worldwide. No such post officially
existed before the announcement. Mr. Armstrong further announced
that Dexter Faulkner, formerly Assistant Managing Editor of the PT,
has been named Managing Editor of the Worldwide News, replacing John
Robinson who will now be pastor of the Fort Worth Church.
Mr. Herbert Armstrong wants to personally return to radio broad
casting within one month. He also plans to begin television broad
casting using our own faci-li t"ies and equipment, especially the video
pod.
The recent changes point up the fact once again that this has
always been a work of change. We have come a long way since the
early days when the Work was being done by just Mr. and Mrs. Herbert
Armstrong alone. As times and circumstances changed, the Work of God
changed. Most importantly the Work adapted, and it grew. We live
in a fast-paced world which is in a state of change and flux. We
would be unrealistic not to expect God's church to also face change
from time to time. To the Church of God, proper change should convey
exciting, positive things. And so we can all look to the positive
aspects of any changes that occur in God's Church and Work, mindful
of our calling and the goal set before the flock of God which we
always encourage and nurture.
Be sure to read the latest Worldwide News when it arrives. It
expands on many of the items I mentioned above. That's all I have
time for in this Pastor's Report.
In Christ's Service,

has run into a few last minute snags, but things are rolling again
and it should be out soon. (I'm beginning to feel like the boy who
cried "Wolf!" on that one!}
The two new booklets, Tale of Two Prophets and Coming A New Age are
doing well -- we've sent out about 40,000 of each

relatives for the past couple of weeks. While there he received a
