What are your thoughts on Operation Christmas Child? I’ve read her about Franklin Graham & his dad, Billy Graham. I don’t know much details. I’m asking because I’ve been in churches that did these boxes. My daughter and I did several boxes over the years. I was in my local small town last week and say the banner outside a church. If the organization is involved in child trafficking or worse it bothers me I helped them and many other well meaning people are still helping.

After everything we now know, my family helps people locally directly. If a church is doing something here that we can see and verify that helps people in our immediate area, then we might get involved. We're much happier finding hardworking folks and giving directly to them, or getting them the help they need.
A lot of honest people do not want anything from the government, were raised to believe it's embarrassing to take any welfare. I used to feel the same way. Now I tell them that it's better that our collective money goes to help working people than thieves and leeches.
This👌Helping neighbors, tipping extra, etc
I love the idea of tipping extra. Most waiters work at least two jobs. We ate at a local Italian restaurant last weekend and the waitress said she works mornings at a country breakfast restaurant. Excellent service deserves a great tip. Tip in cash so it’s not tracked. In NC they don’t make much hourly, less than minimum wage. I’m not sure how much.
