Our congregation as well as three others were saving for a new double hall build for about a year and a half. Many brothers and sisters took out loans to get the ball rolling. We were told by the branch that if we hit around a million we could get building. Before we made it the heist happened and the Governing Buddies took all the money to infuse the LDC program.
Once that happened we had a rep and his wife come and tell us that the money was not needed because we could just reorganize. They said Florida needed halls and the money would be going there.
