Correction

Dear Family,

I must have been really tired when I wrote the family letter last night. The parable I was referring to when talking about Petra and her problem with tithing is in the 16th chapter of Luke, not the 15th , and it is the parable of the unjust steward, not the unjust servant. Petra’s friend read just to verse 8, emphasizing verses 6 and 7 especially but she or the priest who Petra talked to could not explain verses 9-13 saying that those are things that Jesus taught that no one can understand. The real message of that parable is in the last part of it. Anyway, she is finally at peace regarding tithing. She told the bishop that as her circumstances improve she will continue to pay more tithing because she recognizes the blessings that come from it.

Next time I’ll read the letter BEFORE I send it instead of the next morning. I made a lot of mistakes and I rambled a lot. Sorry about that.

Have a good day. Know that you are loved and missed.

Much love,
Mom
