Copies sent into neighborhoods cost $250 per thousand addresses (twenty five cents per copy). For budget purposes, this is a quarterly expense. This amount goes toward the costs of printing,  purchasing addresses sorted for postal carrier routes, the postage itself and all free materials publicized in each issue. Clearly, the costs to produce and mail Christ for Today far exceeds the amount congregations are asked to contribute. Christians in other parts of the nation  cover the balance of the expenses involved.
