A church in Brazil is using part of its tithes to build
houses for the poor and homeless members.
The Assemblies of God church at Lagoinha in Araruama, a
municipality in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has constructed and
delivered dozens of houses to its members, most of them women and jobless.
“We use part of the church’s tithe and offering for the
project. It is not fair to be living big when several members of the church are
living in abject poverty,” said Fábio Mendonza, the pastor of the church.
“The word of God says there will always be the poor amongst
you; do not forget them, Deut. 15:11.”
