Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong announced today (June 21) that he was deferring his scheduled trip to Jerusalem until December 1, 1978. As previously reported, December will mark the beginning of the eleventh year of close cooperation between the Worldwide Church of God, Ambassador College, the A.I.C.F., and the government, people, and institutions of Israel. Mr. Armstrong was invited to visit Israel in December, at which time the president and other dignitaries of the nation will honor Mr. Armstrong and the Church for ten years of contributions in the educational and cultural fields.
Mr. Armstrong has decided that the trip to Jerusalem could best be combined with the December 1st events. This will enable him to devote the entire summer to radio and television broadcasting, preaching, writing, and other affairs of the Church. Mr. Armstrong plans to be in Pasadena each week right through to the Feast of Tabernacles.
