Salvation Army — White donors need to offer ‘Sincere Apology’ for their collective Racism…
Citizen Free Press ^ | 12/15/2021

Posted on 12/15/2021 3:08:08 PM PST by Kevin in California

There are many reasons why both financial and toy donations are down this year, not the least of which is likely pandemic fatigue and concerns about employment and the future,” said Colonel Cindy Foley of the NW Salvation Army Division. “We are actually trying to provide food, shelter, toys and clothing to double the number of families we served last Christmas, and in the midst of the growing need we are seeing fewer people donating at our virtual and physical kettles.”

My dear, late mother never passed up a Salvation Army bell ringer. She would say, “You should give to the Sallies.” I have carried on her tradition, as have several of my siblings. Really bothered me today to pass one by because of this garbage.

I can’t imagine ANY Christian organization adopting anything as SO un-Christian.

I’ll write them the apology they demand and donate that, instead of money.

And there will be some additional words.

Kevin. You been on vacation? 😊 This was item was posted a while back but thats okay. From what I understand they used to be one of the better bunches to donate to. Sadly, with their woke wokeness, changed my #1 charity to me. Sorry bellringers, nothing from us any more.

One alternative:

If you want to donate toys, look up the local Toys for Tots at the Marine Corps League.

Walmart used to offer a discount coupon when buying Toys for Tots. (Don’t know if that offer is still on the table. Ask at your local Walmart.)

The toy buy was restricted to certain toys, and the buy was limited to exact hours at specific Walmarts.

Check it out, if you’re interested.

Colonel Cindy Foley says white givers should apologize.

People like Colonel Cindy Foley are what put Jesus, the Great Giver, on the cross. He didn’t apologize either.

Unless the Salvation Army comes to their senses, you can count down when you’ll see no more bell ringing at that red kettle at Christmastime, something I’ve always loved.

I felt so bad about laundering a racist’s money through your
organization for 50 years, that I prayed about it and decided
not to take advantage of you any longer.

All the best...

It asserts Christianity is institutionally racist, calling for white Christians to repent and offer “a sincere apology” to blacks for being “antagonistic.. to black people and the values of the black community.”

“Many have come to believe that we live in a post-racial society, but racism is very real for our brothers and sisters who are refused jobs and housing, denied basic rights and brutalized and oppressed simply because of the color of their skin,” one lesson explains. “There is an urgent need for Christians to evaluate racist attitudes and practices in light of our faith, and to live faithfully in today’s world.”

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

There are no words (that I will repeat here) to describe how very, very offensive I find these statements. Christians? They're picking specifically on Christians? That tells me they have taken a HARD turn LEFT. I don't do "LEFT" .... my money will go to specific local people/issues .... I just don't trust the big charity groups any more. I think the SA is finding out the hard way who makes up the bulk of their donations and it's not their woke buddies on the LEFT.

They are now accepting applications for bell ringers this year. I’ve never seen that before at any time.

// Does the Salvation Army have a connection to China? Because what they have been pushing sure sounds like a Chinese Struggle Session.

Wat’s a struggle session?

Here’s your answer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Struggle_session //


Interesting. “We can’t hear you!”
