Legacy Letter August 2013

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.

Dear Beloved FAITHFUL Brethren and FAITHFUL Fellow Laborers,

PRAISE BE TO GOD FOR HIS LOVE, MERCIES, and KINDNESSES TOWARD ALL OF US!

Why do we start our letter to all of you in this way? Because Leon and I have not written to you for over six months; and yet you have continued to be blessed by God to remain constant in your prayers, service, and sacrifices for the work of God in the areas He has given us to serve.
