My husband and I both were at the money give away service so before I opened the envelope, I decided to double it. It turned out we both got 40.00. I decided to round mine up to an even 100.00 but then it took me about a week and a half to decide where it should go. My husband gave his 40.00 to a couple of blind people that ran a very small concession stand in his office building. Read more »

I am telling my story as a recipient of the faith stimulus money. Let me give some background before I continue with my story. My son who has been incarcerated for eight years was just recently paroled and lives with my husband and I. As one might imagine the transition for him at times has been quite stressful and costly. We are in no way wealthy people and it has created Read more »

My friend and I decided to pool our money to do something to bless someone. We came up with a few ideas but neither of us really felt that God had directed us to do anything at the time. A few weeks passed and our co-worker had a very dramatic death in the family. Her sister committed suicide, leaving behind a 4 year old little boy named Gryphon. As soon as this happened, Read more »

A few days after receiving the money envelope I spoke with my sister who lives in Puebla, Mexico by phone. She told me how on her way to the store one day recently she’d met a boy and his mother on the street. She asked what was wrong with the boy since he was obviously loosing all his hair and looked sickly. His mother was grieved and said she did not know, the boy had started to loose his hair and had been having such high fevers that would lead to convulsions. Read more »

I decided to wait another week and keep praying to find the person that God would indicate I help. Sunday we went to visit a family in this community, Tony, Rosa and their precious daughter Rosario. We shared with them around 30 minutes. We were very grateful for their attention and hospitality. Tony has been unemployed for 6 months now, Rosa cannot work at the moment (they have a toddler and a baby on the way), and besides they tend to a sick person in a wheel chair. Read more »

I spent time in prayer and every time a certain woman, named Martha, came to mind whom I accompanied through her child labor without really knowing her, but she asked me to be with her since she had no one else to be with her since her spouse was in Mississippi. This person has no relationships with anyone in her community since her spouse forbids her to go out or have friends without his knowledge. She has 4 children now, including the new baby, and he has 6 children in Honduras. Read more »

Brothers, I want to share with you that the money I was given in the envelope I was able to send it to Mexico in order to help a friend who needs the money in order for his wife to have surgery. The value of this operation is about: $8,000 USD. I am thankful I was able to respond somehow to this need.

When I received this money I immediately thought about this person, Read more »

We do not have a lot money-wise, but Lord has been good to us. We’ve volunteered weekly in prison ministry for 5 years at the prison approx. 24 miles from our home. Last year my husband suddenly went into the hospital for a week & was diagnosed with congestive heart failure – we’re not insured. We have faithfully made payments on the debt owed to the hospital and the cardiologist, etc. trying to be responsible and good stewards. My husband now is on (5) regular daily medications that treat his condition & he is doing well – Praise God!. Read more »
