Tik Tok personality Nikalie has been calling churches to see if they would provide formula for her fictitious baby during the government shutdown/SNAP freeze. So far she’s gotten 9 yes/ 28 no. Amon...
Among the few yeses were a mosque, Buddhist temple and a historically black church.
I agree In general, that information would be helpful before we grab our pitchforks.
But at least one of the names on this list, the Lakewood international Church in Houston, Texas, boasts 45,000 congregates a week and a 17,000 seat auditorium. They are one of the prototypical mega churches in the United States. I have not looked up the rest of these, I just recognized that one.
I’m sure there are several small congregations who would like help but don’t have the resources. But at the same time, it is an obvious and irrefutable fact that dozens of prosperity Gospel mega churches sit on their hands while people starve. If your church has an annual budget of over 90 million, is run out of an old NBA stadium, and you still can’t be bothered to give poor babies formula, I think you should be thrown to the lions.
