The congregation of First Baptist Church in Vermont when faced with four times the number of homeless folk to feed this year decided to put up for sale a Tiffany's stained glass window worth around $75,000 to meet the bill. This sacrificial act was noticed and drew wider attention when ABC ran a local news report. As a result the church received donations from all over the US raising enough funds for the urgent needs thereby enabling the window to be retained...
Faith in action, just like Abraham! h/t Gavin Richardson

Mission always expands by goodwill and empathy. I love this story.... The recognition and embracing of beauty always expands a mission too.
