Today I heard about a pastor who told his congregation that he was going to have a second collection every Sunday, to help pay the church's maintenance costs. And he welcomed lottery tickets (new/unscratched). So when you buy a lottery ticket, buy one for yourself and one for your parish. I don't know what to think of this idea. What do you think?
