sb.rfpa.org/news-on-the-synod-of-2020/This paragraph comes from The Standard Bearer Synod 2020 highlights. Perhaps the link is above. The Lord abundantly provides for the PRC financially. This enables the small denomination to support four missionaries, five seminary professors and staff, and care for eighteen emeritus ministers or widows. Obviously there is no need to limit spending on a central part of the churches calling to “go…into the world, and preach the gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:15). In addition to the money coming by assessments and special collections, the PRC have benefited from many sizable bequests. Especially interesting are bequests from two individuals who were not members of the Protestant Reformed Churches that total over two and a half million dollars. One is covering the expenses of the transition of three professors in the seminary. Another is given specifically to the two mission committees for special projects. Let us use the money wisely, but also be encouraged to expand our labors as we have opportunity. The school we were in as PRs was always looking for outside money. I wish the bequests from the two individuals who weren’t members left their money to the schools. I’m just not sure what to think of this paragraph describing the financial standing of the PRCA.
