Suggestions As To
Church Financing
The following letter from W.
R. Reid, o f Garfield, represents
the ideas of an experienced busi
ness man, on the question of
church support and finances.
Mr. Reid’s suggestions a r e
right, except that he is overlook
ing the ever present obstacle of
getting someone or more inter
ested church members, to do the
soliciting.
Soliciting f o r any
work is disagreeable, but the ob
taining o f church funds is a little
harder and unthanked for job,
than any.
easier and better. Suppose e-
nough people sign a Bankable
Bond to secure the payment of
$1200.00 in twelve months at the
rate o f $100.00 per month, each
bond man to mark the amount
opposite his signature that he is
willing to secure. The Bond is
placed in the bank, then the
church finance committee would
send out a subscription paper and
solicit from all who are interest
ed in church work, the amount
paid in on subscription to be
turned into the bank to pay off
the bonds, the deficit if any to
be paid by the bond men. My
plan is to have all church bills
paid each month at the bank.
