So, it seems that this church that had the $3 million lottery prize donated to them is a pretty neat church from what I can tell. I found it interesting to find this on the front of their webpage this morning.
Regarding our recent news:
As you can imagine, this news is being carried by media outlets nationwide and we are getting bombarded with requests and solicitations. The funds we are expecting have already been allocated, and we are distributing the funds to charities and non-profit organizations. We are being made aware of the needs of hundreds of people (more and more every minute!) and it’s not our desire to be insensitive, but 100% of what we are giving away has already been spoken for.
It sucks that when a church (or any business or person for that matter) gets a large sum of money, people come crawling out of the woodwork. Fortunately, it seems that True North has made the right deciscions on what to do with the money, and it sounds like an awesome blessing from God in my opinion.
Check out this post from one of their pastors. It explains what they are going to be doing with the money, and I found it to be a very interesting and great post.
