The pastor gives her money to put into the offering and even gives her additional money for bus fare during the week. Instead of keeping it, she makes a decision to give everything, saying that she came with nothing and would leave with nothing.Her act of faith and obedience is followed by unexpected blessings. Another church member blesses her with money, and during the following week she receives more than $200.
