My TBM relative mentioned in passing over the Thanksgiving holiday that a letter from the First Presidency was read in church a week or two ago. The letter said that instead of spending money on Christmas gifts for neighbors, TBMs should increase their Fast Offering donations in order to help the poor and needy.
Fine, if the "poor and needy" are fifteen rich old geezers who need to add to their real estate portfolio and have a mall to get completed by March.
Did anyone else hear about this?
