With everyone making definite plans for the Feast, it is necessary to ad­
dress a problem that has occurred in the past. At one site there were hard
feelings over how much should be paid for the use of a member's home during
the Feast. This kind of problem can be easily resolved if both parties are
willing to do one thing--give.
The fact that motels and other establishments might charge large amounts
for their accommodations is no justification to also rent one's own home to
a member for a large sum. If the renter only uses the home for eight days,
that's only one-fourth of a month. In no case should the amount exceed the
normal monthly rent or mortgage payment.
On the other hand, the feastgoer who wants to live in another member's home
during the Feast should not assume that it should be cheap. If he feels
there are advantages to renting a home instead of a motel or condominium, he
should be willing to pay for them.
Any of you ministers who are aware of members wanting to rent a home, or
rent out their own home, should advise them to be more willing to give than
