How do you run a church where almost no one works?

Funding a church will be a struggle in any situation. But what do you do when almost no one in the church has a job?

I was meeting yesterday with a couple name Terry and Christine who are church planting in a rural part of Spain. Average unemployment in Spain is around 20% (about twice the average in the euro zone). But in their area it is even worse. There are only one or two people in their entire church of 30 or more people who even have full-time employment!

I don't have an answer to this one. Do you?
