SEPTEMBER – OCTOBER 2018 – Dear Brethren and Fellow Laborers, Since November of last year, Leon’s written words are slowly becoming more legible, so I can easily type them; but this is the first time Leon has written down his thoughts to all of you on his clipboard. I was totally amazed when Leon handed me this:…

27 March 2018 – Dear Brethren and Fellow Laborers, Leon and I have discussed Jerusalem since his hospitalization. It was very much on his mind after coming out of ICU, and it has become a major topic of our conversations together ever since. Now, the United States, amidst much controversy, is to move it’s embassy to this historically significant city. Our in-depth Bible studies have shown us Jerusalem throughout its past, present, and future. Let’s look at this great city that three of the world’s major religions claim as their own. Jerusalem! Where do we begin with this “city of God”? Where does it, or when did it, all begin?

Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong met King Bhumibol Adulyadej the first time in 1971. At that time, the king told him about a new project to educate the ethnic hill tribes that inhabited the highland border region of northern Thailand. These hill tribes grew opium and sold it to Chinese middle-men as their only cash crop. The king wanted to teach them to grow other crops, such as peaches and vegetables, to replace the opium they grew. This would be more profitable for the hill tribes and much less destructive to the upland forests and humanity as a whole. The king also wanted to give their children an education but had very few trained teachers.
