JMO, save your money. If your parish is putting together Thanksgiving baskets, donate to that cause.
I don’t give to many of the 2nd collections because I don’t trust them with my money any more than I trust the government with my taxes. I keep mine at my parish doing things that I approve of.
I am recently disgusted with the way our priest is spending our operating fund so I am currently giving a quarter of what I used to, I will find a more worthy cause for my money.
When I was a Methodist I was appalled when I found out about the “Council of Churches” and their leftist policies. As I child, I Trick or Treated for UNICEF and was appalled that we children were used that way.
I am just sick of working and worrying and trying to make ends meet and then our churches and our governments squander our money.
There are many better groups to give to, RC’s should consider giving to Little Sisters of the Poor.
