Message To Church
Tell my people that the church
of the Four Square Gospel is going
ahead. We shall soon have raised
the needed 100000 to finish our
school, where we train missionaries
and workers said Aimee Semple
Mcpherson, famous evangelist, here
today.
God is good. Tell my people not
to pay any. money. 1 am safe. 5s
Every dollar that have ever
raised, except that for my tiny little
bungalow on 3Oth avenue, has gone
! to my church. 1t has gone into steel
and concrete. No, not for monu-
but for q monument to God and his
good works.
IF l had been killed, my work
would have been carried on. Those
plans were all made The only other
property beside my nome that 1 own
are the lots on the hill that the
Gypsies gave me.
Worker For God
Il have lived plain life 1 am
worker for God. Liter I built my
church, my people gave me $4,000.
l believe that the gifts people give
to evangelists are given without any
strings attached to them. But, while
some might put the money into oil
wells, into mines, into property, 1
took that 100000 and gave it to
God. We installed a great radio
broadcasting station in the church of
the Four Square Gospel, Angelus
where could hear my voice.
Il want the people of England
and Scotland to know thta am
alive, although here on a bed in a
hospital. Tell the people of England
and Scotland that 1 am alive. Give
them my blessing.

have worked for my church and my
people. God bless them. God bless
you all

afternoon in regard to her abduction.

to get back to my work. Here it
