"That's cool. How much are you donating? Since you are a lawyer I assume you will be generous with your donation".
She then turns to Donnald and say...well you know George, Donnald all the same thing, right?", she says while looking at her nails.
"Well, first it sound like your father is very rich, that $50,000 isn't a big of a thing right? I'm donating $20,000 and for me, that means I will have to go without for a while." Lionel says, "Also so what if Donnald is only giving $10 and a box of food, have you heard the story of the widow's mite?"

"Widow's mite?....What are you talking about? Is that a movie or something? Never heard of it. Yes daddy is very rich so US$50,000 isn't a big deal at all, it's kind of like small change.
US$20,000? I guess that's pretty okay I guess", she says while checking on her makeup."
Jasper takes out his bible, and reads, "As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. He also saw a poor widow put in her two mites. "Truly I tell you," he said, "this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on." (Luke 21:1-4)
"A destitute widow has only a few mites to her name, and those she gave selflessly as her donation to the Temple. Jesus comments that her modest gift was worth more than the ostentatious contributions of the wealthy, for her mites represented all that she had. This virtuous woman had demonstrated true Christian faith in God -- she could not know from where her next meal would come, but she believed that He would provide for her, and that Mariah is the story of the widow's mite", Jasper tells her.
"Oh brothers, a preacher in our midst? Geez that's what I needed right now!", she says sarcastically. Anyhow, thanks for sharing the story I guess. A lawyer and a preacher? What a combination".
"She then turns to Donnald and says "As I told you before, I can call daddy at anytime and he may have a better job for you."
