Many people simply can't work to make money! Churches are closed, there are very few tithes and offerings coming in to support pastors, and they are not allowed to work side jobs.
Most Filipinos try to heal at home, but if it the government finds out they have COVID, they often force the person into a hospital where they can't be visited and have to be provided for by their families. The financial burden is overwhelming, often resulting in high-interest loans to "get them out" once recovered.
PASTORS NEED HELP!! Stimulus Check Tithe??? Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ - the government in the Philippines is giving 5,500 pesos to each person to help with COVID-19 which is about $108 US, a little less than a tithe of many of your checks. The pastors have been kept out of this government assistance for some unknown reason, but they are not able to gather in churches and receive the small offerings they live off. Many are going hungry!! My dear friend Ruth oversees 36 mostly poor pastors!! Charlie, even more!! Is there anything you can give to help? Scott and I will gladly match any gifts and of course, 100% goes straight to them. Thank you so much for helping.
