During the collection in church a few Sundays ago, a little two-year-old boy was overlooked when the plate was passed. The music had stopped and the ushers had returned to their seats before one of them noticed the youngster frantically waving his lonely penny. With great dignity, the man walked to the front of the church, retrieved the collection plate, and brought it back to the boy so he could make his contribution.
