Thoughts & Reflections: "In the Plan"

Sunday saw only $4 in the Heavenly Rainbow collection basket, which almost immediately left in the hands of two needy people. Rev. Branch's response? Gratitude he was able to help at all. And a $4 Sunday offering doesn’t mean $4 is all the Church will spend helping people this week; it just means the rest will come out of his pocket.
