Co-Worker Letter – March 31, 1982

We have published a brochure showing photographs of all ministers of the Worldwide Church of God. The brochure also lists the assigned churches of all ministers, and also lists all local elders of churches.

To the brethren at Thessalonica the apostle Paul wrote, “And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; and to esteem them very highly in love for their work’s sake” (I Thess. 5:12-13).

God’s ministers need your prayers. When you pray for them, or specific ones of them, it would be helpful to see the faces of them for whom you pray.

These pictures are only in black and white, but they do help you to know and recognize those servants of Jesus Christ who are His shepherds feeding and leading His flocks.

NEVER has the entire Church and ministry been so closely knit together, in such love, harmony and cooperation, as now. The blows Satan has struck through those deceived ones who have been falsely led to attack God’s Church and/or ministers, whether they be attacking singly, as a group or through government, have only served to draw us all – ministers and members – closer together – “all the building fitly framed together, groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord” (Eph. 2:21) – the Temple to which Christ is soon coming as KING of kings and LORD of lords!

This brochure also shows you separately the Advisory Council of Elders, and the evangelists, and the regional directors in branch and foreign offices. It consists of 34 pages.

A copy of this pictorial brochure will be sent to all members – one member in each family – on request. It is updated as of 1981-82.
