On this particular day, he was building some crates（木箱）for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage（孤儿院）in Brazil. On his way home, he found his glasses were gone. When he mentally replayed his earlier actions, he realized what happened. The glasses had slipped out of his pocket and fallen into one of the crates. His new glasses were heading for Bras5u
　　The Great Depression was at its height, and Grandpa had six children. He had spent twenty dollars for those glasses that very morning.
　　“It’s not fair,”he thought as he walked home angrily. “I’ve been very faithful in giving my time and money to my work, and now this.”
　　Several months later, the director of the orphanage e to the United States. He wanted to visit all the churches that supported him, so he e to my grandfather’s small church in Chicago.
　　He began by thanking the people for their kindness in supporting the orphanage. “But most of all, he said,”I must than for the glasses you sent last year. You see, some people had just e to the orphanage, destroying everything, including my glasses. I was desperate. Even if I had the money, there was simply no way of replacing those glasses. Along with not being able to see well, I experienced headaches every day, so my coworkers and I were very worried about this. Then your crates arrived. When I removed the covers, I found a pair of glasses lying on top.”
　　He paused long enough to let his words sink in. Then, he continued: “When I tried on the glasses, it was as though they had been made just for me! I want to than for being a part of that!”
　　The people listened, happy for the miraculous glasses. But they thought it was strange because there were no glasses on their list of items to be sent overseas.
　　Sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his fay grandfather, an ordinary carpenter realized his glasses had found a good place to go.
