The early church was known by their generosity. Christianity was even criticizes
as a "religion of widows and orphans." As we celebrate the church on the Day of Pentecost, let's seek the same criticism and live with the same
life-giving generosity. There are millions of orphaned children waiting for you to give them what you have. Give what you have.
