My mom and dad were vacationing in Europe and walking through an old church, site seeing. They came across two younger women (20’s?) that were also looking and taking notes and obviously American.

My dad struck up a conversation - turns out they were missionaries. “You know - Austria is almost as unchurched as parts of Africa now!” Anyway - my dad asked if it would be okay to give them a little donation, and pulled out his check book. I forget what it was - something like $250. The girls thanked him and said “Oh thank you!! Our rent is $250 and it is due at the end of the week - and we didn’t know where we would get it.”

“Oh - that’s amazing! Well I’m glad I could help.”

“Yes - it IS amazing - but we see it all the time - God providing for us in so many amazing ways. It confirms that we are doing His work.”

And of course not only were the gals blessed, and the people they minister to were blessed, but my old man got a blessing too.
