Question for A/G people on this board

I had read it earlier but just been busy and not jotted a response on your blog...

My thought is, just tell the truth...apologetically. Let them know your hubby is is the one who does finances in your home and you did not realize he was doing the tithe this way. (Obviously you have paid it, it's just not recorded as such with the way he did it) but I would just say, 'oops...won't happen again..." he realizes not that we have to do it a certain way for district council purposes.

I think if you are just honest about this and put it like you did on your blog, they will be understanding (hopefully) and next year you can just do it the right way.

What are your thoughts after mulling it over a bit?

I was pretty much thinking along the same lines!

I'm just a little more unfamiliar with this district's leadership, which is why I'm a little nervous. I had a relationship with the people in the MN district office...I worked right down the street from them and ran into them constantly due to my working at NCU. Here? I'm just not sure. I like to think they'll be understanding about it.

The thing is, I could just let it slide and they would never even know the difference, so as I blogged - I think my integrity in this matter should count for something, lol!

But your advice is good...and I think I will throw myself at their mercy. The fact that we have been so blessed lately (financially and otherwise!) is a testimony to the fact that we have NOT robbed God, and my conscience is clear with Him. I just have a tendency to overthink things, and play out the "worst case scenario" in my head over and over again.

Thanks for listening...
