What the heck is a Woodchuck anyway?

Gone are the days we, as a global community can continue pumping money into missions, into the poor and into micro-economies and things like that as a major means of charity.

Money is needed all the time, there must be money going in. For such a time as this though, with billions already going in through major aid agencies and where NGOs are aplenty... money might not be the biggest need...

Mother Teresa said, the greatest poverty is Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.

Covenant EFC is raising and spending $27million on its new building... which could have been used to help the poor. Or maybe it could be used to disciple another generation people who will go and alleviate the greatest poverty.

And in that $27 million journey, the missions giving fund was honoured. A quick check of the AGM minutes should reveal a sum in excess of $1mil.
