Lyrics to the parody song played in this episode:
(To the tune of It’s the End of the World As We Know It by REM)
That’s great it’s time for a tax break
Checks and cash and paypal’s fine
Any way you’d like to give
Trying to do again
Year of us, free from sin
Podcast twice a week
Keeps us sane, sort of meek
We need help a buck won’t last long
The tally is a ticking
Right along with time
Twine isn’t mine
Cause we give it all away
There, I’ve put it on the line
It’s the SQPN/RA Fund Drive
(It’s time to give some of your tithe)
It’s the SQPN/RA Fund Drive
(It’s time to give some of your tithe)
It’s the SQPN/RA Fund Drive
(It’s time to give some of your tithe)
It’s time to give.
Another year how quick goes by
You’ve heard it all a million times
This is what we like to find
NO BEADS… ALL TWINE!!!
All the shows we’ve ever made
TCS and RA
Are thanks to you
It’s two different fund drives
And they both need help
RIGHT?? RIGHT!!!!
(Chorus)
Thanks for your continued support of Rosary Army and SQPN!

Thanks for the good work you people do but I really cringe about how so many listeners turn off when the majority of any program(or all almost all of it) is about asking for money. That is why PBS fund drives have their lowest viewership/listenership ratings.
I don’t mind programs asking for funding but I find “Moderation In All Things” is a good virtue to live by.
When I have given to charities I look to their financial report to see how well and efficiently they are spending their well intentioned donations. It is extremely important that any ministry have transparent and accessible financial records so that people know that their money is being spent wisely. My suggestion is to post both the Rosary Army and SQPN financial reports so that people can see that their donations are being well spent(stewarded) with efficiency.
God bless
I love SQPN, I also love Rosary Army. Should I give to both? Doesn’t SQPN include Rosary Army? If I had $100 to give should I give 50/50 to RA/SQPN?
I haven’t heard this show yet, so forgive me if you already mentioned it there. Please clarify for your listeners.
Thanks and God bless
UM…Isn’t REM kind of local to you guys? Aren’t you worried they’re going to come looking for you? :p
@Bridget: A 50/50 split is fine. Or you could give all of it to SQPN or us. It’s totally up to you and we appreciate it just the same.
@Marc: That would be pretty cool if REM did find us.
Will you post the Maximillian Kolbe prayer somewhere on the SQPN website so we can easily click on it each day for the novena? Or will you post the text so we can simply read it? Thanks!
Greg and Jennifer, thanks for a great show – loved the song although now it’s stuck in my head. I am proud to support you in your apostolate. Wish I could donate more, but I know that every little bit helps! Your drive will be in my prayers this month!

Hi Guys-
Quick question: If we already have paypal set up to donate monthly to SQPN/Rosary Army respectively at a set level, how do we let you know that we are continuing to donate at the same level. Since it is set up for monthly deduction until such time that we stop it.
Thanks-
Mary
Hi Mary -
Great question! If you want to keep giving at your current level, just send us an email letting us know your current level and how you plan to continue giving (via paypal, automatic bill pay, etc.).
If you’d like to increase your monthly donation, then you’ll need to cancel your current subscription and sign up at the higher amount.
Thanks to all of you who have already donated to the 2008 Giving Campaigns for both Rosary Army and SQPN. Remember – they are two separate campaigns, two separate goals, but two very needed apostolates!
