Cath dear, hang in there and don't let the misery gremlins drag you down. Yes, do give the church your financial circumstances, and see what they can come up with to help you thru til your ok.
Maybe use up some of the time to Google for information on subjects you need more education on, and of course keep busy here.
My prayer tonight for you and all here on SR is, as every night, that all needs may be met and strength and consolation be given to everyone in despair, and that peace come to all.
God bless
