We regret to announce that there are only 15
copies remaining of our book, "The Kingdom of the Messiah." The
book will not be re-printed and those who desire to add a copy to
their library should write at once enclosing check for $2.50 per
copy.... To all of those many brethren who write each month
asking us to locate for them a used copy of our book "The Royal
Priesthood" we must announce that there are none available even
for libraries which would like to place a copy on their
shelves.... We are gratified at the sale of the new long playing
record under the title, "Who Is My Christian Brother?" by the
editor. This is a production of Kingdom Kraft, a company
dedicated to the task of producing educational and instructive
material with such sound recording media. The cost of the record
is $4.95 and it can be ordered from MISSION MESSENGER. One
brother has ordered six and is keeping them busy for the Lord....
It is our intention, God willing, to present in our next issue
the speech to be made at the North American Christian Convention,

Our assigned topic is "Preaching the word of God by writing" and
it will be given on Friday afternoon of the convention. Included
in the same issue will be articles on "The Ultimate Conquest" and
"The Pentecostal Experience." These, together with another
instalment of "The Divine Attribute" by Vernon Hurst, will make
the August issue one that you will long remember.... We realize
that the hot summer weather brings a slump in reading and also in
subscription intake. For that reason we urge all of our readers

including subscriptions for other interested friends and
brethren. Why not send a list of names right now before you
forget it. The subscription rate is but one dollar per year. If
you should like to secure additional copies of this issue you may
have them at the rate of ten for one dollar! If you conclude that
this month's paper is worth circulating, send for a supply now
