Re: >>>The Church in Financial Crisis<<<

Until some of these guys cut back on their cruises, mutliple vacations, timeshares, ski trips, first class flights, and basically living the lifestyles of the wealthy and famous on the backs of their people than I'll be worried.... sad to say... makes me wonder sometimes....
