Not a bad strategy. Another little secret that people don't know about church budgets: If your ward as a whole goes over, the Stake just covers it. Now, you first have to get your Bishop to do it and be willing to take some heat from the Stake Pres. but if the Bishop is willing to take the heat the ward can just go over and the Stake will be forced to cover it.
