Quotes:

•  “The church would have this special Sunday where everybody would bring their biggest and their best bananas or mangoes, grapefruit, oranges, avocados, whatever. And we would sell that to the church. We would go to the church and sell that and the proceeds would go to the church. So that's worth saying, look what God has done for us.” [12:00]
•  ”They gave to the community and they gave to each other.  They watched over each other's children as if they were their own.  At the church, everybody bring their best to the church.” [25:30]
