PASTOR GENERAL'S
REPORT
TO THE MINISTRY OF THE
WORLDWIDE CHURCH OF GOD
VOL. 8 , NO. 2 5
PASADENA, CALIFORNIA
SEPTEMBER 2, 1986
Dear Ministers,
Classes are under way for the new college year! I was able to meet
each of the freshmen and deliver the orientation address at both
Ambassador campuses the week of August 18. I encouraged the students to
make the most of the opportunities they will have at AC by being
participants rather than bystanders. I was impressed by the young men and
women I met.
They appear to be a fine, enthusiastic group of young
people. As I wrote in "The Worldwide News," I look forward to learning
great things about them in the future.
I went over to the television studio with members of my staff last
Friday, August 22, to view the first completed telecast taped on the new
set, due to air September 6-7. The program, hosted by David Hulme, is
titled "The State of the World." I must say I am sure you are going to be
impressed!
The powerful message, enhanced dramatically by moving
graphics, an all-new opening logo and closing sequence with new music and
the visual effect of the new set is sure to "knock the socks off" our
viewers 1
The impact of this opening program will be great.
And, of
course, it is only the first. Encourage the brethren who can receive the
program to be� to tune in. They won't want to miss it.
The strong summer response we've had indicates that the viewership is
growing. Thank you for continuing to pray for the success of the program.
God has clearly answered our praye·
rs and has blessed our efforts. Let's
not let down now.
The Feast of Tabernacles is now only six weeks away. Most of you full
time ministers will be speaking during the Feast.
Let's pray for one
another's messages as well as for our own as we begin finalizing our
preparations. The messages at the Feast should be the highlight sermons
and sermonettes of the year. They should be the most inspiring, encourag-
