Walking By Faith
I hadn't seen this movie in years and it was a refreshing event.The story centers around some German nuns who "pray" this man into helping them build a chapel for their place to worship after he merely stops to get water for his overheating car.Moved by a force one assumes to be Divine influence, he agrees reluctantly at first but soon finds that he sincerely appreciates the nuns' faith and persistence. As the project progresses, more and more townspeople come out to help with this project.Sydney even teaches the nuns an old negro spiritual- Amen - and develops a true rapport with them in the process of learning them and helping them.
