The interesting thing is that we carried a deficit from the last assembly in December of over $5k.
You can hear the collective WTF from the audience when the accounts report is read.
I used to work in the Accounting department at the circuit and we always covered the amount due, however, back then in the 2000’s the mandatory Tithe was far less as the circuit assemblies were 2 day events for $15k.
the beautiful thing is that my dad is waking up to this particular area of the Borg.
