Dear Friend or Foe, 2 January 1979 MO GP No.754
GREETINGS IN JESUS' PRECIOUS NAME! WE ARE WRITING YOU THIS LETTER TO KNOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE US TO SEND YOU SOME OF OUR LETTERS & OTHER PUBLICATIONS, even though you may not be a member of our Family at present. You may have been a former member or a friend or a relative or a contact somewhere, & you may or may not have read some of our Letters before.--But we thought you might be interested in receiving them, even though you are not now living in one of our Homes.
YOU MAY HAVE HAD TO RETURN TO YOUR OWN COUNTRY & former family for various reasons--pressures, persecution, dissatisfaction or other difficulties--and may have even gotten a job & settled down alone or with a family of your own. Or you may have never been a member of our Family.
IN ANY CASE, WE THOUGHT YOU MIGHT PERHAPS LIKE TO CONTINUE TO RECEIVE, OR RECEIVE FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME, SOME OF OUR LETTERS &/OR PUBLICATIONS THROUGH THE MAIL at your present personal home address, to get the latest news of the Family & its exciting activities, or the latest news from the Lord on present current events & the world situation.--Or you might even find helpful our latest childcare publications, children's editions, children's teaching helps, children's educational materials, True Komix, etc., for your own personal information or use.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS FILL OUT THE SMALL ENCLOSED FORM with your name & address & how many copies you need of each publication for you &/or your family & check the appropriate answers that fit your personal situation, fill in the blanks if possible, or what blanks you can fill in, & return it to us in the enclosed pre-addressed envelope, along with your gift &/or tithe.
IF SO, PLEASE SEND THIS NOW together with the names & addresses of any other folks that you think might like to receive or need to receive our Letters & other publications, & we will endeavour to do our best to mail them to them as soon as possible. Or, if you are not interested, perhaps you could pass this form & envelope & letter on to someone else who might be.--Thanks!
MANY LIES HAVE BEEN TOLD ABOUT US & MANY MISUNDERSTANDINGS HAVE ARISEN AS A RESULT. All we would like to do is tell the Truth to those who would like to know it. And we are going to try to use this method of direct mailing in an endeavour to do so, if possible.
WE ARE VERY SORRY FOR SOME OF THE MISUNDERSTANDINGS & MISTAKES OF THE PAST of some of our Family & some of their leaders by which some of you may have been offended, & we hereby apologise for them & wish to let you know we're doing our very best to rectify some of these matters.
WE'VE HAD AN ALMOST COMPLETE CHANGE OF LEADERSHIP & A THOROUGH REORGANISATION, so that every Family member may have a greater say along with their friends on our policies & methods on the local level, & we hope to correct many of these mistakes & a lot of misunderstandings hereby. Meanwhile, we hope you will forgive us if we or the Family or its leadership have offended you.
WE SIMPLY SPEAK WHAT WE BELIEVE IS THE TRUTH in the way that we feel it should be said, regardless of whether it is always easy to take or not. You may even be shocked by some of our literature & our methods & our actions, but at least we're trying to get out the Gospel.
WE HAVE DISTRIBUTED OVER 300 MILLION PIECES OF GOSPEL LITERATURE within the past few years, reaching literally billions with our Message, both personally & in the media, & we have already won over 3 million souls to Christ in the brief period of our existence as a cooperative Family.
WE HAVE HELPED TO CHANGE THE LIVES OF MANY FOR THE BETTER from past uselessness & degradation & drugs, vice & even crime, & helped to make many of these young folks useful citizens of the world & who in turn are now helping others. So, you must admit, we have accomplished some good in this poor, sad, old world of ours in helping many people find joy & happiness, salvation & Jesus a something to live for!
SO EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT YET A FRIEND BUT WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT US, PLEASE SEND THE ENCLOSED. If you are a friend or an ex-friend, we hope you are still serving the Lord & we'd love to hear from you & hope you would like to hear from us. If so, please send the enclosed. If you don't know what this is all about but would like to know, please send it anyway.
BUT EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED, PLEASE DON'T WASTE THIS: PLEASE PASS IT ON TO SOMEONE who might be interested. Because if you don't return this report blank in the enclosed envelope, we shall have to scratch your name from our mailing list & bother you no more, as we can't afford to write you again. So this may be your last opportunity to hear from us.
SO IF YOU DO WANT TO HEAR FROM US, PLEASE MAIL IT NOW! The sooner the better, & the sooner you will be put on our mailing list for regular weekly mailings of our Letters & literature & news of the Family throughout the world all month long--a usual average of about 30 publications per month or one-a-day vitamins for your daily living:--You can hardly beat that.
WHY NOT TRY IT?--YOU MAY LIKE IT! GIVE US A CHANCE!--And give yourself a chance to see for yourself what it's all about by keeping in touch with one of the most interesting young religious movements of today! You owe it to yourself to be informed--and you may even owe it to the Lord to help us if you can. Send the enclosed with your gift today!--Thanks!
MAY GOD BLESS YOU WITH HIS TRUTH & salvation from this Hell on Earth, & keep you from the horrors to come by His loving protection & provision forever!--Throughout Eternity!
YOURS IN HIS SERVICE, THE FAMILY OF LOVE!--AND YOURS TRULY,--FATHER MOSES DAVID--The old rascal himself!--Pleased t'meetcha!--Love ya!--MO. (Nope!--I'm not dead yet!--Thank the Lord!)
P.S.--Now you've had a MO Letter written just for you--Ha!--Hope you like it, & that we hear from you soon!--In Jesus' name, amen (If you know others who'd like'm, write their names on the back--Tks! GBY!)
