REPORT
TO THE MINISTRY OF THE
WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD
VOL.3, N0.25
PASADENA, CALIFORNIA
FROM MINISTERIAL SERVICES
Important Update From the Festival Office
JUNE 19, 1981
Some members have called asking about the status of their transfer to
international sites, including Jerusalem, for the Feast.
By now, most
people should have received a letter of confirmation or denial from the
proper
office,
or
R
&
J Travel (for the Jerusalem trip). However,
due
to an
error on our part, everyone who requested an international site on the
computerized attendance list will appear to be approved on the new list now
in your possession.
PLEASE ANNOUNCE and make clear that only those who have a confirmed booking
with R & J should consider themselves approved for Jerusalem. Likewise,
only those who have written to and been approved£¥. the appropriate inter
national offices (EXCEPTION:
transfers between U.S. and Canada) should
consider themselves approved.
We apologize for the error, and for any inconvenience it may have caused.
International News
Update From Australia At the present time The WORLD TOMORROW broadcast is
being aired once a week over 29 television stations and 32 radio stations.
While in Australia, Mr. Armstrong gave instructions that we should go on
daily radio throughout the country as soon as possible. Our media agents
are already working on this.
Response from our newsstand programme continues to be most encouraging. We
have received a
2.1%
response so far, adding many hundreds of new sub
scribers to The PLAIN TRUTH mailing list each month.
Fifty thousand newsstand copies were distributed in May.
In June the
figure will double to
100,000,
and in July we anticipate
125,000
copies
will be picked up by interested readers at outlets throughout the country.
In October newsstand distribution will have increased to
150,000
copies per
month.
Another exciting milestone in the history of God's Work in Australia
occurred during Mr. Armstrong's visit. Mr. Armstrong approved the pur
chasing of land near beautiful Lake Moogerah (about one hour's drive west
of Brisbane) for a Summer Educational Camp for the young people of God's
Church
in
Australia.
Sri Lanka Plans were made this month for daily broadcasting over Radio
Ceylon 1n Sri Lanka. Following the decision made by Mr. Armstrong (while he
was here in Australia) to begin daily broadcasting in the area, we are
negotiating a contract to give the Church the same time each night across
