AMBASSADOR COLLEGE Opened My Eyes! - Jack R Elliott - April 1951

Jack R Elliott

WHEN I heard that Mr. Armstrong and the students of Ambassador College were preparing to publish a new magazine called The Good News I was overjoyed. That it will include articles of benefit to co-workers as well as students seems to me of great importance. It is not hard for me to remember the time when I was not so closely associated with this work as I am now. A little more than a year ago, my wife and I were in the same position that most of you co-workers are in today. We lived in Texas. The only connection we had with this work of God was through the broadcast over station XEG, and the letters, booklets, and magazines which were sent to us from Mr. Armstrong. I remember how anxious we were to receive literature from the Radio Church of God and to hear the broadcast every evening. I remember, too, the many disappointments we received - the static occasionally so bad on XEG that we could only hear a few words, other broadcasts which crowded this one off the air, repeat programs, and delays in the Plain Truth, with Co-workers' bulletins continually bringing in bad news of financial difficulties and making urgent requests for more money. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
