Herbert W Armstrong

The closer we get to the Feast, the more excitement and enthusiasm we're seeing as people begin to anticipate what they feel will be the most spiritually rewarding Feast ever.

Mr. Armstrong's forthcoming trip to China has sparked a deep interest with many of the brethren. The trip has captured the imagination of the members and many letters reflect the fact that Mr. Amstrong's personal appeal for the brethren's prayers for his guidance has had a great impact. Included in the letters below are typical examples of the comments we have received about the Feast and the China trip.

Looking Forward to the Feast

Received my Feast confirmation today. Feast fever running high. Looking for the cure at the Lake of the Ozarks.

Mrs. Malcolm Martin (Houston, TX)

I'm really looking forward to the Feast this year more than I ever have before. With all the trials the Church has gone through this past year we need this Feast to draw us all closer together.

Mrs. Virginia A. Richmond (Corydon, KY)

I'm getting so anxious for the Feast to arrive, hopefully to a new site which in itself is exciting but also to be rejuvenated with the spiritual food I know we will receive this year. Am praying for those who will be giving sermons that God will inspire them and also the listening. That we will be doers of the Word and not just hearers.

Mrs. Pauline E. Barnes (Tyrone, OK)

I am already getting quite excited over the Feast. I just know this will be the best Feast I ever kept. It is now my sixth Feast and they really do keep getting better.

Ann Przemielewski (Buffalo, NY)

My wife and I are so excited about the upcoming Feast of Tabernacles 1979: This is the first time since I have been out of high school that my vacation time will be perfect for the Feast. I have lost two previous jobs because of my keeping of God's Holy Days. This year will be my 10th Feast. It will be my wife's 23rd or 24th Feast! We are so excited!!! We can hardly wait!!

Mr. & Mrs. Jackie McConnell (Springfield, MO)

Mr. Armstrong's China Trip

I just wanted to let you know that we are thrilled beyond words at the news of God's apostle going to China! To realize God's representative is going at their invitation! How wonderful. We know that God is really with you in all you are doing now and are awed by it all.

Olan McRay (Birmingham, AL)

We have been keeping our eyes and ears open for every little tidbit of information about your upcoming trip to China this fall. We are very excited about it and of course we have been praying a great deal about it lately.

Mr. & Mrs. Warren Larson (Marysville, WA)

I will pray for you on your trip to China. Every Gospel mission you undertake brings us that much closer to God's Kingdom.

V. Korstrap (Long Beach, CA)

We are excited about your coming trip to China and praying for your good health and that God will give you the wisdom to know how to preach the Gospel in a country that doesn't even admit God's existence.

Mr. & Mrs. Randy Gregory (Austin, TX)

We are very excited about your trip to China and the red carpet treatment Mr. Rader received from them. God is surely speeding things up when we realize that you will be taking the gospel to a country which has over one quarter of the entire world's population.

Mr. & Mrs. Frank Fridrich (Austin, TX)
