Celebrating Black Inventors (Part S)

I had another dream: this one was that I was in church hearing one testimony after another, and there was one particular testimony that I heard and really started praising God about, then before I knew it, I was on the pulpit and the congregation was collecting an offering for me. In the collection bowls were nothing but coins (dimes, nickles & quarters). One person was helping me count, Mrs. PJ. I can't figure it out.
