Herbert W Armstrong

Back into the Ministry: WE SOON LEARNED there was a reason why Mike Helms had come for us when he did. The former president of the California conference, A. J. Ray, had moved to Oregon, near Jefferson. A very small balance had accumulated in the conference treasury, and small amounts of tithes from members once again were beginning to trickle into it. Mr. Ray learned of the Oregon Conference's plans to bring me back into the ministry as soon as funds permitted. He had moved swiftly to forestall that, by sending for a close friend - I believe he was a former Seventh-Day Adventist minister - Sven (Sam) Oberg, whom he wanted as the Oregon minister. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
