[Sister Alvear]

I may cut back on a lot of things but never giving to God for as the man of God of long ago said, "For all things come from Thee, and from Thy hand we have given Thee."

I think I can say this and you know I am not asking for money. I have found the more I give to God´s little ones the more He gives to me. I do not give to get but it is HIS promise to bless us for giving to His work.


I live under great pressure and work among a people that are very poor. So that means everyday scores of people from all over Brazil call me telling me of their needs...and in some way I try to help. Sometimes it is overwhemling...the needs...Yet when I look at a beautiful church building right beside my house, look at my house I KNOW these blessings and many others have come because of giving to others.

Dear ones, I am not asking for your money please do not think I am. I am just telling you cut back anywhere you can but not from giving...for that is where blessings stem from...
