<<<Why in heaven's name would you write a check if you feel that way about the church?>>>

Did you just say that?
Or was that me?

<<Why in heaven's name would you write a check if you feel that way about the church? >>

Because it's the right thing to do. My parents and grandparents were very close to the church. I wish to respect their memory and I have no problem with God. I'm in the top 10% of the donors but don't feel welcome to attend services. I give them a check every year, even years I lose money, with out being asked, but I guess I don't have a "giving heart", 2 Cor 9:7.

At least the Mission thanks me and may get the whole payout next year. The Mission let me deliver a bed I donated and takes things I find like 4 dozen end of the year tomatoes that are picked by my neighbor before the frost.
