George Müller
1805 to 1898
George Müller was a German-born preacher who settled in Bristol and gave his life to caring for orphans. He took in more than ten thousand children over the years, and as a matter of principle never once asked anyone for money. He simply prayed, and the food and the funds arrived, again and again, for sixty years. His whole life was a deliberate, public argument that God hears prayer and can be trusted.
