PROGRESS AND PRAISE REPORT :
"TILL DEATH DO US PART?" GOES INTERNATIONAL!
Mr. Clark Slone, the director of "Christ is the Answer Mission" in Italy with over 150 workers under his leadership, just wrote us the following in a recent letter.
"We have one of the best interpreters in the country ( Italy) working on your book. He is known in all of Italy as one of the best. We want to maintain the same quality of the English version ...in content, binding and cover. We have also found a good printer...and a publisher...So far so good. For the first printing it will cost $4500.00. (15,000 copies)
As you know we are a mission, and live off the offerings we receive through our tent meetings. There are 150 of us, so you can imagine the pressure of staying on the road for the Lord. He has always provided, but to divert finances to something of this sort is difficult. You mentioned that you might be able to help some. If you can't, I understand. We feel that this message really needs to get out...One way or another we will do something because there is a great need here.
Let me encourage you to keep going forward on this most serious of subjects."
NOTE:
Wouldn't you like to have a part in getting this message into the hands of believers in Italy? Brother Slone said there were NO DIVORCES in the church in Italy UNTIL American evangelists came over with their new doctrines.
If you would like to pay for the printing, or a part of it, just designate your offering for " ITALY," and Webb Ministries Inc. will see to it that they receive it all. I think this is a unique opportunity to prevent false doctrine from spreading before it gets as far along as it has in the U.S.
Another mission director in Spain has informed me that he is slowly working at translating the book into Spanish. Isn't our God wonderful?
"TILL DEATH DO US PART?" IS GOING NATIONAL!
Spring Arbor, one of the largest book distributors in the U.S.A., has just signed a contract with Webb Ministries to make the book, "Till Death Do Us Part?" available nationwide to Christian bookstores, seminaries and colleges.
After studying the book Spring Arbor concluded that it could not market the book to wholesale outlets at the present price of $8.95 and still leave room for Webb Ministries and itself to cover business costs. Using standard procedures for determining the proper pricing based upon the material in the book plus the present market for similar books Spring Arbor determined it will be marketing the book at $12.95.
Webb Ministries will maintain its original lower price of $8.95 until September 1, 1993. At that time we will be legally required to raise our price to match Spring Arbor's price.
Webb Ministries will, however, be able to continue to give price breaks for volume purchases, which the bookstores won't. You will find the new volume price list enclosed. Remember, the new prices will become effective on September 1, 1993.
The greatest advantage for you in this new relationship is that it will allow you to tell your friends all over the U.S. that our book is now available at any Christian bookstore through Spring Arbor. You have no idea how many letters I have received from people who had spent weeks and even months trying to find where they could purchase "Till Death Do Us Part?"
ONE DAY SEMINAR—A REAL BLESSING
The Lord allowed me the opportunity to speak in Breckenridge, CO on August 25, on the subject, "Wanted: Godly Men." After teaching at the 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. services on the need for applying godly principles in the home, repenting of past failures to fulfill our vows to our marriage partners, and the need to learn and practice those principles everyday, there was an immediate response. The altar was quickly lined with individuals and couples committing themselves to "quality changes" that would strengthen or restore their families. Others, who were single, committed themselves to learn biblical principles for Christian families before they get married. They recognized in a new way the meaning of, "they shall know the truth, and the truth shall make them free."
