Look at where the money went

Of every $100 spent, about $74.60 was reported for mission work. Use the spending picture below and ask what results that work produced.

Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.

Worth asking: Expenses exceeded revenue by $2,098,525 this year. Ask whether that was planned or caused by a one-time event.
