Chapter 40: Chapter 40: The Bakery’s Saved

The night ended and the morning came. Faye served customers coffee and donuts all morning for a set price with 90% of the cost going to a last ditch attempt to keep the bakery running. When the time arrived for the bank to open, the big four all loaded up in Arthur’s car with all of the various contributions packed safely inside. Some volunteers followed along with several dozen full giving jars to take to the bank; others stayed behind to run the bakery.

“I’m nervous for her,” Rachel whispered to Arthur as they got out of the car.

“We all are, Rachel. We all are. It’s in God’s hands now,” he responded, moving quickly to help his grandma out of the back seat of his car while Rachel did the same for Faye.
