PASTOR GENERAL'S
REPORT
TO THE MINISTRY OF THE
WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD
VOL.3, N0.12
PASADENA, CALIFORNIA
FROM MINISTERIAL SERVICES
Special Film to Be Viewed Nationwide
MARCH 20, 1981
On March 7th, Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong spoke to all of the Southern Cali­
fornia churches by microwave transmission from Tucson. This powerful
sermon has been transferred to 16mm film. It is Mr. Armstrong's desire
that this film be shown to all U.S. churches as soon as possible. Many
churches will be viewing it on the 4th of April, with the majority of
U.S. churches seeing it by April 11th.
On the Sabbath that this special film is shown, the following format for
services should be used:
--hymns
--opening prayer
--announcements by pastor (there will be no sermonette)
--special music
--Mr. Armstrong's 16mm film
--hymns
--closing prayer
Also, a number have inquired about the use of projectors. The following
information should answer most questions.
If the audience is composed of less than 1,000 people, the normal 16mm
projector with an incandescent lamp (500 to 1200 watts of power) will do
the job nicely. However, if the audience exceeds 1,000 people in size, a
larger, special bulb is required.
Several types of projectors have been modified for use with these special
bulbs--the General Electric Marc 350 and the General Electric Marc 300.
These are small, enclosed mercury arc lamps capable of producing about four
times (Marc 300) or six times (Marc 350) the illumination of the 1000-watt
lamps. They cost more to rent, but are necessary to get ample brightness.
The most popular projectors using these special lamps are:
BELL & HOWELL MODEL 567 (MARC 350) AUTO-THREADING (RECOMMENDED)
BELL & HOWELL MODEL 566 (MARC 300) AUTO-THREADING
KODAK PAGEANT (MARC 300) MANUAL-THREADING
GRAFLEX MODEL 940 (MARC 300) MANUAL-THREADING
KALART/VICTOR MODEL 70-15 MC 3 (MARC 300) MANUAL THREADING
Finally, we would like to thank you for your prompt and diligent effort
and cooperation in helping us to organize this project. It certainly does
take teamwork.
Next week's Pastor General's Report will include a shipping itinerary for
each film, information on shipping procedures, and other pertinent infor­
mation.
