HCL: "You asked me how much I gave to support widows."

I thought i was keeping up with both
conversations. I missed Sister DonnA's
question. Are you sure her question
is not:

So how many widows does your church fully support?

We understand this question is unanswerable
now for you lack the data. But this
brings up a problem: churches should never
hide thier financial records from
the members, potential members, nor the
general public. To do so is deceptive.
I would never join a church like that.

 

I agree, we are not members (yet). As I said in another post somewhere, our church situation is a delicate one. I must add one more thing. We are visiting an Anabaptist church. Anabaptist churches do not pay their pastors so there is much more money available to give out. They also do not have alot of programs, nor a church secretary to pay.

 

ahh, people who hide what they do with doanted moeny? Doesn't sound good to me. I als think as a tax exempt organization they finacial report has to be made available. by law that is, of course you don't beleove in obey the laws though.

None of my business? But you've made others business your business. Many times in many threads. Prephaps you intrude where it's none of your business in ohters buisness also. So if your allowed to, then so are the rest of us.
