“God Needs Your Offering In Dollars And Pounds” – Ugandan Pastor

Rev Canon Christine Shimanya of The Anglican Chaplain for Uganda’s Parliament, recently adviced Christians who give their regular offering in shillings (the local currency) to use dollars and pounds as well

According to Daily Monitor newspaper, Rev Canon Christine Shimanya said this during a sermon at Namugongo Martyrs Church, just outside the capital, Kampala, on Sunday..

He said…

“Some Christians have dollars and pounds earned from international conferences; instead they change the money to shillings before bringing it to church as offertory.
Bring those dollars and pounds, God needs them.”

Another clergyman, Canon Henry Ssegawa, then came to his defense, saying the church needs money with higher purchasing power..
