ATTENDANCE, TAX DEDUCTIONS, AFRICA, PRAYER, EARTHQUAKE
Mr. Herbert Armstrong delivered the afternoon sermon in the Ambassador
Auditorium on the Feast of Trumpeta this past Monday, September 16.
Mr. Armstrong was in his usual form, speaking powerfully about the
momentous events just ahead of us when Jesus Christ will return in
great glory to take the helm of rulership of all nations. The sermon
will be mailed out for all pastors to play in their congregations. As
with the tapes mentioned in the last •pastor General's Report,• you
should plan to play this one after the Feast.
It would also be
appropriate to use this one before the other two, even though it is a

activity. The same applies to children. If a child has a contagious
illness, he or she

They should call for a minister
to come to wherever they are staying.
If there is any doubt about

members should call a minister. Ministers, of course, are not doctors,
and should not advise as if they w�re doctors.
They should advise
anyone whose symptoms seem to indicate a communicable illness to stay
home Cor in their motel> until he or she is well, or until a medical
doctor diagnoses the illness as not being contagious.
Occasionally a baby will have
symptoms from teething that re
semble those of a cold but are
not--such as a runny
nose,
slight fever or
diarrhea.
Parents in God's Church should
not assume their baby is only
teething and therefore allow
other children to be exposed to
him at services or Church ac
tivities.
Babies exhibiting
such symptoms should be kept at

others who may not realize the baby is only teething. It is not wise
or right in God's sight to take chances with the health and well-being
of others.
