God bless the SDA, all denominations, and all Christians and non-Christians.
My wife and myself do not attend any Church, we try to belong to the universal church of Christ, as thoroughly, and dare I say profoundly, described in the SDA Quarterly "Oneness In Christ".
We are elderly, infirm and unable to attend a Church physically and we seek help medically, emotionally and with day-to-day chores. Recently some of my wife's family, most of whom are SDA, have visited and helped a little.
However one of them, who does quite a lot for us and will continue in spite of what her pastor told her. She offered to do more voluntary care for the Church, but he said that because she had not paid her tithes the SDA Church could not accept her offer in the name of the Church. She continues to attend but still does not pay tithes and neither does she do any voluntary work for them.
My wife and myself have been advised here in CF to find a local Church who might help us but so far we have not succeeded.
The Mormons visited and gave great offers, with gifts of a Bible and The Book of Mormon. We declined and returned the books.
