Be they treasurers, accountants, bookkeepers, or auditors. A \u201cshout out\u201d goes to you, as a \u201cshout out\u201d goes to Angela.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"background: white;vertical-align: baseline\"><span style=\"color: black\"><span>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>Angela needed to resign from being the Regional Conference treasurer this past week. After more than ten years in her role, she is stepping down. For some it was surprise that Angela\u2019s time was ending because they were so accustomed to seeing her manage the donations, offerings, expenses, and books. She always handled her role with integrity, humility and a quiet firmness. She knew where everyone\u2019s money was or what had been done with it (for ministry). She listened to many comments, questions and inquiries. When the people brought their Church\u2019s tithes and offerings to Angela for the Regional budget there was always some short conversation that took place. She always responded in her firm voice with a slight smile. She epitomized the quiet, solid treasurer with a serving heart and disposition. And she got great snacks to share at the regional meetings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"background: white;vertical-align: baseline\"><span style=\"color: black\"><span>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>So many Christian organizations handle so much money and all of it is very scrutinized with most of it being somewhat public knowledge. We hold those who handle our money to strict and stringent accountability. And we should. So when someone comes through with a great \u201cmoney\u201d testimony, handling their responsibility with integrity and honesty and humility, you realize how blessed you are and how blessed your ministry\/organization\/work can be as well. We have been blessed to work with some very good \u201cmoney handlers\u201d throughout the years (not everyone fits into this category, but, fortunately, more have fit this category than haven\u2019t). This \u201cshout out\u201d is because Angela is stepping down, which has called us to count our blessings for those who have handled our money well over so many years and in so many different situations. Maybe you want to pause a minute and thank God for those \u201cmoney handlers\u201d who have blessed you and the ministries you are a part of throughout your years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-report-this\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/sander?moderation_action=report_form&object_type=post&object_id=502&width=250&height=300\" class=\"thickbox\" title=\"Report This Post\">Report This Post<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a \u201cshout out\u201d to all of those who handle the money of Christian organizations \u2013 Missions, Churches, Foundations, Organizations, Charities, etc. \u2013 and do it with integrity, honesty, promptness, and clarity.
