Actually, what you're describing is encouraged (assuming you're not a danger to the community, etc.). Part of the desire when someone is disciplined in this manner is that they return to full fellowship, and regular participation in church functions is definitely a plus in that respect.

I remember a broker I knew back in the 80's that got ex'd for adultery. He probably wouldn't have now days. Anyway he shows me this letter that says he can't pay tithing, he paid about $50,000 a year. The letter though said he would be more than welcome to pay the $50,000 to a general fund, he just couldn't call it tithing.
