. PASTOR GENERAL'S
REPORT
TO THE MINISTRY OF THE
WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD
VOL. 8, NO. 21
PASADENA, CALIFORNIA
JULY 8, 1986
Dear Ministers of Jesus Christ,
Preparation for the new season of The World Tomorrow continues at full
pace.
The new state-of-the-art cameras have arrived and are now
installed, along with several other pieces of sorely needed television
equipment. During a demonstration of some of the new equipment last week,
Media Services Director Larry Omasta asked one of our technicians, Nick
Leaver, to show me the operation of our new electronic paint system. This
amazing system permits the opera·
tor to draw or paint full color paintings
or graphics, ready for use on the "World Tomorrow," all by computer! What
could take hours.
before can now be produced by a technician in only
minutes.
Projects that used to take days can be done in hours.
This
equipment will allow for great improvement and diversity in our graphics.
By the time you receive this issue of the "Pastor General's Report"
the new set, which has been under construction for several weeks, will be
in the process of installation in our Television Department. Perhaps I've
mentioned before that I'm sure you will be inspired by the quality of
visual versatility the new set will give us. We have decided to start off
the new season with a program that will demonstrate a broader range of the
set's capabilities than the previously planned subject of international
terrorism would have. Remember to be praying for the "World Tomorrow"!
As I wrote in my "Personal" in the latest "Worldwide News," I was
deeply impressed by my visit to the first session of our two United States
summer camps. The unity and harmony of the staff members, each responding
to the dynamic and right-on-track leadership of Dr. Kermit Nelson, is
truly inspiring.
Under Mr. Larry Salyer's overall guidance, Dr. Nelson
has worked closely with each staff member to produce a group of
individuals who really serve and encourage young people, teaching them
that the fruits of God's way far excel the fruit of this world's ways.
Each activity was well planned and carefully organized.
I think you
pastors are going to find some turned on youngsters coming home from

these camps this summer.
This is
just one more example of the fact
that when our ways please God,
when we do things His way, He will
bless us.

On another subject:
I hope
each of you realize the value of
the instruction in our various
publications
to
our
personal
Christian growth.
Often articles
appear in "The Good News" or in
"The Plain Truth" that are just
the admonishment or correction we
may personally need.
