And there was probably a lot of tithing that was paid on the ill-gotten gains: LDS Church being sued for tithing paid by suspected fraudster Former LDS stake president pleads guilty to scamming $1.5M from church members Affinity fraud continues to plague Utahns and Mormons Former LDS bishop pleads guilty to felony fraud charges Wife Of Fraudster Gives Advice On How Investors Were Duped And How To Prevent Fraud Ex-LDS bishop charged with investment fraud with singles ward members Kaysville man accused of $1.5M scam against fellow LDS Church members has heart attack, trial put off I guess the Church should just stop the practice of receiving donations (KIDDING!!!!)

The name of the man behind it is somewhere in the middle of my brain and I can’t pull it out. My memory is that they changed to ensuring a building was paid for before building to prevent future issues…but don’t trust me tonight, maybe it will lead others to confirm or disprove though. Added: I kept going to Moyers and I knew it wasn’t that, but was closer than I thought: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_D._Moyle Wendell Mendenhall, I think the Church was headed towards financial disaster and then a Canadian saved the day😍 1

They don't want that to ever happen again, regardless of what happens in the world. Regardless of what happens in the world?
