HISTORY OF HERALD OF HIS COMING

Herald of His Coming came into being in Los Angeles,
California in 1941. Willard C. and Sarah Foulkes Moore had
been traveling and holding meetings, Brother Moore teaching
on prayer and the overcoming life, and the two of them
gathering people for prayer. In 1941 God directed their steps to
Los Angeles, where they had met and married a few years
previously, being in their late 40’s at the time.

   They were living in a small room of a church, using the
auditorium to gather people to pray. A printer who was a man of
prayer offered to print a paper for them to help spread their
deep burden that the Church worldwide be clothed in holy
garments, ready to meet Christ at His coming. Brother and
Sister Moore had no experience in editing and had no thought
of printing a paper. Neither had they any money. But a friend
who had given them $50 to print tracts agreed they could use
the money toward the paper.

   The first edition of 10,000 copies had a good reception, and a
second was printed. Others followed, and in this way God led
His servants into publishing Herald of His Coming monthly. In
1943 Gospel Revivals Inc. was established as the non-profit
corporation which publishes Herald of His Coming. God made
the Moores to know Herald of His Coming was to be
undenominational. It was to be kept unworldly and unadorned
and printed economically on newsprint that it might be sent
without charge, that no one be denied the Gospel because they
could not afford to pay for it.
