Anyone can support a missionary
It's easier than you think! Here are a few ideas:
A federal study claims the average person takes 65 cents in change out of his pockets at the end of each day. SAVE THAT EACH DAY AND IT EQUALS-----$19.50/MONTH, $234.00/YEAR
If you buy a cup of coffee everyday, make it at home. SAVE $1.10/DAY, 5 DAYS/WEEK, 20 DAYS/MONTH EQUALS---$22.00/MONTH, $264.00/YEAR
If you buy lunch at work each day, bring your lunch one day each week instead. Average savings by bringing your lunch instead of buying it are $3.00 per week. BRING ONE LUNCH PER WEEK AND SAVE $12.00/MONTH, $144.00/YEAR
Skip lunch one day a week and pray for missionaries. SAVE $6.00/WK, $24.00/MONTH, $288.00/YEAR
A family of 4 skipping one meal out at a fast food restaurant each month SAVES $24.00/MONTH,OR $288.00/YEAR.
A family of 4 skipping one dinner out a month SAVES $44.00/MONTH, $528.00/YEAR.
A family of 4 skipping one night out to a movie each month SAVES $36.00/MONTH, $432.00/YEAR.
