Hi all,
I had a number in my head on what I would pledge. Didn't know how I'd get there, but I thought I'd try.
It turns out that I'm getting a much bigger tax return than I thought I'd get. The difference is close to the number...and its going to the Faith Promise.
For some background, I was laid off for two months this fall and worried about money (who isn't). That was a very tough time for me, and Cindy and others really helped me get through it, and not feel like I was a failure. Ultimately, it worked out and I've got a great job now. But I won't ever forget that when I was feeling really down, I had a place to go and friends that cared. It is just a wonderful plus, that the way taxes work out....I get a bit of a benefit...and can share that with the church. (I'll still save the pennies though!)
Take Care,
Eileen
