A brother from the 1st Ministerial Training School in Australia, quit his missionary assignment in Asia. The society had to send him in as an English teacher otherwise Missionaries are not given Visa's. So on assignment he had to teach english part-time for a small wage. What he was shocked to discover was that they insisted he hand over his teaching wages to the society since he was "their" missionary, and recieved a small amount of money from them. This did not go down too well with this intelligent fellow...so scratch one missionary, not a good start for the first school...this experience did not make it into the Yearbook.

Now, do you know him personally? Is it you perhaps?
If so, we know each other very well.

Surely they could let him keep the money he was making on the side, and allow him to continue as a Missionary. He thought it was morally wrong for them to make him hand over his pay check to a rich ORG. considering that missionaries live on "peanuts" from Bethel.
