George Muller’s work is an excellent example of an effort to serve others that is motivated by faith. Four aspects of his ministry are who was involved in starting it, how it progressed, and its outcome.
First, who was involved in starting the orphanage? It originally started with just George Muller and his wife, Marry Groves. They started by renovating their rented house in Bristol to accommodate 30 girls. It soon spread to three more houses on the same street, with some housing boys.
Next, how did it progress? One principle that George Muller always held to was not asking for donations. He never asked for money or food, but relied solely on God’s providence. Popular is the story about the children not having any food for the morning meal.
