“They have suffered a great deal. But their joy was more than full. Even though they were very poor, they gave very freely. I give witness that they gave as much as they could. In fact, they gave more than they could. Completely on their own, they begged us for the chance to share in serving God’s people in that way.” 2 Corinthians 8:2-4
