My dear friend in Christ,
I am sending this second reminder as our donation cycle for this quarter ends on July 31st. Please fill out the form and return to me as quickly as you are able!
We prefer not do not insist that all our donors are members of the one true faith, we do not ask that you join our church just that you are of our one true faith. If you are not of our faith then still complete the form as best you can. We will fully consider honest God fearing applications from other denominations.
Therefore you are required to complete and return the enclosed form with all due haste considering your health. This form may be filled on your behalf by your legal representatives or somebody known and trusted by you. Once that is done to our church committee's satisfaction and our prayers have been received and accepted by The Blessed Virgin Mary we can proceed with accepting your most generous donation to be used in the Lords work. Amen
In handling your donation we only ask that our expenses are covered plus an administrative fee of 10% of any money expended.
yours in Christ,
Pastor Robert Ised
