==Purposes== Donations from fast offerings are not used for the same purposes as those monies given through [[tithing (LDS Church)|tithe]]s. Specifically, fast offerings are used to provide food, shelter, clothing, medical care, and other necessities for those who are in need, fulfilling the meaning conveyed in [[s:Bible (King James)/Isaiah#Chapter 58|Isaiah 58:6β11]], with attendant blessings to the giver and the receiver. Tithing funds are used to build and maintain meetinghouses, [[temple (LDS Church)|temples]], and educational facilities; for the general maintenance of church operations; and for costs of [[missionary (LDS Church)|missionary]] and genealogical and family history work.
