June 24, 1947

Mr. Harry A. Bromley,
1017 Highland View, N. E.,
Atlanta, Ga.

Dear Mr. Bromley:

I want to thank you for your letter of June 21st and your invitation to come to Atlanta to candidate for the pulpit vacancy. I am very much interested in Atlanta and found your letter a spur to further interest.

However, I am to be in Santa Monica, Cal. for the month of July. I do not feel I can ask them to change their plans to allow for a visit in that month to Atlanta. Santa Monica will call a minister in the fall, combining a parish ministry with an AUA student work arrangement on the Los Angeles campuses.

I can come to Atlanta any time in August – excluding the first Sunday. In short, should you find after your July preaching that you still have a vacancy and want me to come August 10th, or any Sunday or combination of Sundays thereafter, just write me care of Mrs. Fred W. Jackson, 1655 1/4 S. Bundy Drive, West Los Angeles, 25, Cal.

I will hold August open pending any further arrangement.

You have my best wishes for a successful settlement at Atlanta this summer, and a pleasant summer in your own plans.

Very sincerely yours,

<signed>

Howard G. Matson
