He founded 117 schools that offered Christian education to 120,000 children, many of them without parents.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cIf I, a poor man, can build and administer an orphanage without asking anyone for money or assistance, only through prayer and faith, this, together with the blessing of the Lord, could encourage God\u2019s children in faith, being, also a powerful testimony to the unbelievers about existence of God. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The famous writer Charles Dickens himself visited the parliaments of George M\u00fcller to see himself the treatment offered to children. Dickens was so impressed that he wrote articles for several newspapers, an advertisement money can\u2019t buy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-37586 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ocbf.ca\/2019\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/muller-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ocbf.ca\/2019\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/muller-2.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ocbf.ca\/2019\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/muller-2-300x217.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thus, even after the age of 70, M\u00fcller traveled intensely, reaching 42 countries, speaking even to White House authorities, sharing with others his rich experience with God.<\/p>\n<p>On the day of M\u00fcller&#8217;s funeral, the Bristol factories shut down.<\/p>\n<p>Thousands of people came to pay their last respects to the man who was transformed by God from a thief who betrayed his closest friends, to a man who put himself at God&#8217;s disposal and raised the equivalent of 180 million dollars would through prayer and faith in Jesus.<\/p>\n<p>M\u00fcller wrote of his conversion: \u201cWhen I surrendered myself totally to God, the love of money was gone, the love of a home was gone, the affection of wealth was gone, the Love of worldly things was gone. God has become my everything I found everything in Him, there is nothing else I wanted. And I stayed with Him, a happy man, a very happy man, seeking to only accomplish the things of God. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Many more lives have been transformed because of M\u00fcller&#8217;s faith and courage.
