Giving generously

When Moses called for the people to bring materials they brought so much that he finally had to tell them to stop. Everyone wanted to contribute to the materials for the Tabernacle. When we built the squatter church in Manila one man, who did most of the work on the church, had nothing to give other than his time. He wanted to contribute something other than his labour so he gave the land in front of his squatter house to put in the septic tank. The picture shows one of the other volunteers digging the hole in front of his door. What a lesson that is for us who have so much.
