And never, ever was it taught that you were to help out the widows, fatherless poor people in the church, community or your neighborhood... no, just give to the Missions and that takes care of that. We found out that maybe 20% of what you actually give to to the UPCI Missions program, actually goes to the country to help out with the gospel.... If that much...
