Editor’s Note from January 27, 1978

By the time our readers receive this issue of C.T. I will have returned from the meeting of the Lausanne Committee for World Evangelization. This is an international committee of people who are vitally concerned with getting the Gospel to everyone. Its operation depends in many ways on the financial support of North Americans. It is an enterprise in which an investment will return rich dividends.

California, Washington, D.C., Nova Scotia, Schenectady, Florida, and Oregon are on my travel and lecture schedule in the next few months. I always enjoy meeting C.T. readers wherever I go.
