PASTOR GENERAL'S HOTLINE TAPE SCHEDULEPASTOR GENERAL'S HOTLINE TAPE SCHEDULE

The August 21 edition of the Pastor General's Report mentioned that you would be receiving a schedule for your calls to the Pastor General's Hot-line WATs tapes. These news of the Work tapes will be made by Mr. Arm strong whenever possible, or a member of his Pasadena staff, to help keep the entire Church current on the latest happenings.

Preferred Callina Times

We will begin airing two tapes per week October 29, 1979. A new tape message will be available each Monday and Thursday morning at 8 AM Pasadena time. However, we request that each Church Pastor, or someone he assigns, call between 11 AM and 12 noon their time, if possible. This way calls will be arriving at four different times here in Pasadena because of the four different time zones across the nation.

These are your preferred times, but if you wish to call at another time, please call between 8 AM and 5 PM Pasadena time. Please do not call Saturday or Sunday. We have no staff for Saturday, and we need to keep the lines open Sunday in order to take literature requests from people watching "The World Tomorrow."

The Number To Call

Use our basic WATS number: 1-800-423-4444. Those calling from California, Alaska, or Hawaii should place a collect call to 213-577-5225. Give the WATS operator the special identification code. (The code remains the same as before).

If you receive a busy signa1, or your call is answered by our answering machine which asks for your name and address, hang up and try again after five minutes. We are limited in the number of calls our WATS line can take at any one time.

If you have questions you would like to hear answered on these tapes, feel free to state them at the time you call. We will pass them on to Mr. Kevin Dean.

Message Verification

This WATS phone service can also be used to verify the authenticity of a message phoned to you by the National Phone Network. You simply tell the NATS operator you wish to confirm the most recent National Phone Network message, and give the identification code.

Call ANY TIME to verify a "Priority 1" message — and only during the hours of 8-5, Pasadena time, to confirm "Priority 2, 3, or 4" messages phoned to you.

This Hotline service will be suspended for the Feast period between Monday, October 1st to Friday, October 19th (inclusive).

Any further questions about this telephone service should be directed to Kevin Dean, (213) 577-5186.
