<TITLE>03. Par 9-12</TITLE>L-9 Now, I want to thank you all for... They just told me, just now (Brother David and--and my field secretary, Mr. Mercier) just told me that you had given two love offerings of this meeting to me. Thank you, my precious friends. That love offering will be placed in the foundation of the Branham Tabernacle, and will be used to sponsor meetings. I'm paid a salary: hundred dollars a week. And so then, that will go for the Kingdom of God.
At each of those churches, at Brother Outlaw's church this morning and down to Brother Fuller's church Sunday week, I've tried to not let them do it, but they'd... By the time I enter the door, Brother Fuller'd hand a check in my hand of... I forget just what it was, around a hundred dollars for missionary. And this morning, Brother Outlaw's church gave a hundred and one dollars and fifty cents, missionary offering. Secretary has it, goes right into the foundation to send us overseas to preach the Gospel. Someday, I pray in heaven that that'll be mortar to your eternal home on the other side.

L-10 We thank you for all your fine cooperation, for your buying of the tapes, for the books and everything. And they just about take care of their self. Sometimes we have to let the campaign catch up the books, because if no one has any money and they want the books, they can have it anyhow, free. That's right. It's not the idea... Just so I can get enough back to have them printed again to take them out. And we... The boys work on a very small salary on selling those things; they work all through the foundation of the church.
And the church... If you want receipts for those things, we have a number now at Washington, DC that you can officially get... your redemp... your... off of your income tax, from Washington, DC.

L-11 Thank you again for everything that you've done, for the fine people who's been ushers and helped in the prayer lines; and above all things, we thank God from the depths of our heart, every one of us, for His Presence in every one of the churches and here in this auditorium. Night after night have we seen His great hand stretch out in mercy to heal the sick, to prove His appearance, and His second coming being close at hand.
I'd like to ask tonight, while the auditorium's about packed out, I think, tonight, this arena, that I'd ask you all to pray for me. It may be, within the next few days, week, or three or four or five weeks, that Brother duPlessis and myself will be going to Europe (all through Europe) in meetings. Perhaps a little later in the summer, going down into Australia and New Zealand.
And then it was by the Christian Businessmen wants thirty days over in (What was the name?), Cuba, where the government is inviting us to come, and Haiti's, and those places in there. And then also, where we were at, down there in the Caribbean Islands and Puerto Rico, the same group that sponsored Billy Graham had a meeting with me there and wants the entire island... Make a--a rim for it, around night in this place and night in that place, and then come back to the ball park again for a great meeting in the ball park. The great compliments they said about the meeting and things... Oh, the harvest is truly ripe, laborers are few. Let's pray to the Lord that...

L-12 I want to thank the homes that I visit for being so nice, especially Brother and Sister Sharritt and Brother and Sister Williams, and all the fine fellowship everywhere. We sure appreciate you with all of our heart. I say that for my wife, my family, my son, Brother David duPlessis, Brother Roy Borders, my associate Brother Gene Goad, and Brother Leo Mercier. The whole staff... Brother Sothmann (Fred Sothmann from Canada) which is also on the staff at the church, is one of the trustees in the foundation. We thank you all that... from our hearts. God be with you, and we hope to be back with you again before Jesus comes, if it's possible. God bless you, make your churches prosper, and many souls be saved.
