Good News on God's Work in South Africa - Herbert W Armstrong - January 1982

Herbert W Armstrong

The Work of God in this Philadelphia era was introduced into southern Africa in 1954 when the World Tomorrow program began to be broadcast over Radio Lourenço Marques in the then Portuguese colony of Mozambique. This broadcast continued until 1972, while the mailing list of The Plain Truth increased and readers corresponded with the office in Great Britain. Evangelist Gerald Waterhouse conducted the first Church service in Johannesburg, South Africa, on March 18, 1963, with 33 people attending. A few weeks later 42 took the Passover, and the following year Mr. Waterhouse established the Johannesburg Office. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
