Although our church pays this apportionment in full, many congregations withhold payment as a means of protest against some boards and agencies of the Church that receive funding from this apportionment.
We believe that if churches were able to choose where their money would go, many that are currently not paying anything would choose to pay part of the asking, and total dollar support would increase.
