In Chennai, the pastors come to seminars after 9 a.m. as they have to drop their children off to work, since their wives work.

In Chennai, the slum pastors go round visiting their church members in the first two weeks of the month, because their members are paid the first week of the month, and are able to give their tithes. For that reason they would leave a seminar after lunch, because if they didn’t do so they wouldn’t have money for the rest of the month.

In Brazil, the pastors visit their members the last week of the month, because they have no money and their members will give them a meal.
