Too often, people are told to suck it up when they have guts hanging all over the place. It is too soon to suck it up.

You have problably never met anyone like the "daughter". There was a "meeting" to discuss and vote on the boyfriend. It got ugly. When different ones spoke out, the "daughter" and boyfriend got very loud, told them to sit down, asked the ushers to sit them down, said things about people in the congregation ,about their finances, that everyone knew wasn't true. The daughter should not have even discussed a members giving in front of the church. Most of the people just sat there shocked. I would have just left, and said GOODBYE!! They won't get off that easy tho. I'm sure the IRS is looking!
