- "How ? By asking. Giving is a responsive activity. People give when they are asked. You and I are the ones who must ask. Announce that you are a giver. Tell when and how you give. You do not ask another to do what you yourself have not already done. But then, ask. Ask others to join you. They will. People give because they are asked and to people with whom they have much in common. You are that person" (p. 3).

- Notes
- Author describes a film he saw recently entitled "Millions" about two brothers who find a huge suitcase of money and then decide, quite differently how to spend it. Money is an ever-present issue for everyone, including the Church. "Our Communion work needs money to complete our vision for St. Andrew's House and our programmes for the global family entrusted to our care. Employees at the Anglican Communion Office can't live in Central London because we can't afford it. ACC's, Primates, Lambeth Conferences cost money -- how can we do it ? The spirit of young Damian in `Millions' could well be a model for us all. `Give till you give it all' or `until it hurts' -- was his theme".
