Or is it a problem because the church paid for the pastor's vacation to the Caribbean? I don't see that as being a problem. Pastoring is as 24-7 job, so if the church wants to bless the Pastor and his wife for their contribution of time and labor to the church, I don't see what the issue is.
Besides, we dont know when was the last time he even took a vacation. Some pastors go looong periods of time without taking some time off, or getting away on vacation, so if the church wants to send them on a trip, I dont think thats's necessarily a big deal. We dont know the whole story on this, so I dont think we should allow ourselves to jump to improper conclusions.

So you think "Church" is the time and place to have 4 solicitations for funds one of which was a raffle (gambling)?
BTW if Pastoring is a 24/7 job what is being a saint that get's calls or text messages all times of the day and night to pray for this person or that person, teach bible studies, witness to souls, show up early for prayer and whatever else a saint is expected to do and to shell out money not once, not twice, not even three times but 4 times in a place and time that is supposed to be about prayer, worship,evangelism, edification and other such things?
