UPDATE: 1974 Ministerial Conference The Biggest and the Best Ever - Good News Staff - September 1974

Good News Staff

IN 1934 the modern era of God's Work began with the ministry of one man - Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong - and one small congregation in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. As the Work grew, expanding throughout the United States and then abroad, so did the need for well-educated, specially trained men to represent Mr. Armstrong in his ministry. The founding of Ambassador College in 1947 made it possible to provide for the manpower needs of the Church. Today over 500 ordained ministers represent Mr. Armstrong and God's Work in 400 congregations around the globe. In this issue we report the ministerial conference held at Headquarters in Pasadena. In an upcoming issue we will take an in-depth look at the ministry of the Worldwide Church of God. "This is certainly one of the greatest occasions in the lives of all of us. It is by far the greatest ministerial conference we have ever held. This day marks a new thrust forward in the Work of the Great God." - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
