A local Houston church (in Humble, Tx) Grace Church of Humble hands out money to members....but they must pay it forward.

I was amused at where each envelope had a different amount in it and when the black lady got $6, she was mad. I'm like why you mad-pay it forward. It isn't for you to keep, no matter how bad you need it. One woman got over $1,000 in her envelope. I was pretty moved by it all.

It's a wonderful gesture....but I still wonder how many of them just keep the money.

Wow, I love that story!

I think that even if some of them keep it, it still won't eclipse the many who will use it as it was intended.  I just love random acts of kindness, so this article is right up my alley!
