NeuroTypical Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Love it. While our government is spending (for example) 1.5 million dollars in Texas to help seven poor families winterize their homes, the church is spending volunteer hours and miniscule administrative expenses to set up a perpetual, self-sustaining fund that lifts thousands of families out of the cycle of poverty. I've been a big fan of PEF for a long time. Anything I can give over and above T&FO gets split between here and disaster relief. LM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pam Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Perhaps the government could learn a thing or two from this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
