return them.

Armstrong will be presented in the May •p1ain Truth,• the May "Good

I want to thank all of you for your support and prayers. The many
letters, notes, cards and calls from you men all around the world have
been most inspiring and encouraging to me.
My faith and confidence are in Jesus Christ's sure and · infallible
promise, built into the very commission He gave His Church: ••••Lo, I am
with you always, even to the end of the age• (Matthew 28:20). Let's
remember that promise!

Proa Colin Adair We ended the year on a high note. Mail income for
December was up 26.41, bringing the year-to-date figure to 101•. When
added to other income sources, 1985 closed with a 12.51 increase.
We feel certain we will set a new response record with Mr. Armstrong's
book •Mystery of the Ages.•
The softbound version of the book has
arrived and the first 30 ,000 were mailed in December. We printed the
cardboard mailing boxes locally and gave YOU members the opportunity to
help insert and mail the books.
This saved the Work expense while
allowing YOU to earn funds toward future projects.
In 1986 we are looking forward to maintaining our present mailing list
size by initiating two direct-mail campaigns.
