Just have to jump in feet first here, firstly, hopinso. what sort of church were you going to that they would turn their backs on you for being broke and on welfare. Having been a "church person" all my life I do know that some can be cliche, arrogant etc but never have I come across anyone being treated like this.
Rudenski, God moves in mysterious ways hey, being on welfare myself (although in a different country) I know how it feels to be on the wrong side of handouts, just proves it never pays to judge anyone by their material possessions. When you think of it Jesus was on"welfare" during his time on earth, dependant on others for everything.
