Brethren & Co-Workers Letter - January 01, 1970 - Herbert W Armstrong - January 01, 1970

Herbert W Armstrong

I have just returned from a most eventful and successful six weeks' trip (which I had expected to last only three weeks) to find that rumors have reached the press concerning the absence of my son, Garner Ted Armstrong, with many false rumors and baseless conjectures. Also many letters from you Co-Workers asking for an explanation. I hope you will realize that this is the most difficult and painful announcement that I have ever had to make in a Co-Worker letter. Last autumn I was dismayed to learn that my son had been so overcome with personal, emotional problems, that it led to conduct inconsistent with the high standard of the Work of the Church of God and the scriptural qualifications for a minister of Jesus Christ, and rendered him incapable of carrying on the duties of a minister, and of his responsibilities of Executive Vice President. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
