Regular statements from the funded financial institution are maintained. These funds can be used for any expenses incurred for going to a post-secondary institution or for vocational training. 4 Pastoral assistance - As part of our mission to serve churches in training and equipping future pastors, we will provide funds to help with tuition, resources, salary, housing etc. A church must agree with the mission, doctrinal and philosophical values, of the Path to the Pastorate program set up by Fundamental Christian Endeavors Inc for this assistance.

Any other needs such as salary, housing, and living expenses will be sent to the participating church for distribution. 5) Benevolence for special needs - Funds are proveded to such individuals as we have knowledge of moving expenses, medical bills, need of employment, setting up a home, etc. X Hay 2760 30200 selling price X Metal building and panels 1 78790 selling price X AED and batteries 3 1891 selling price X washer and dryer 2 1564 selling price 0 0 0 0 Schedule M, Part I, Lines 25-28 Line 25: All 2,760 bales of hay were donated by one donor.
