The young Arthur Guinness was walking in his native Dublin, Ireland and was so moved by the sight of all the drunks that he was weeping. They were drunk on cheap, home-made hooch, which was both enslaving them - around 50 % of the population - and killing them.

Arthur asked God for a formula for a drink that the men would actually drink and that would do them good!

His testimony is that God gave him one: Guinness beer! The slogan for years was, "Guinness is good for you" - they actually used to give it to expectant mothers in UK hospitals for strength.

In his lifetime, he saw the rate of alcoholism decrease by something like 40%. They liked it - can you blame them? He became very successful.

Some years later, while out walking again in Dublin, Guinness met a young man crying. After inquiring the problem, the young man said that he was appalled by the number of orphans on the streets.

Guinness asked him that if he had the resources, would he and could he do something about it. Young Dr. Barnardo replied, "Yes!" Guinness sponsored Barnardo's Homes all over UK and Ireland, and all over the world. Guiness was one of the most famous names in all of orphan-recovery history.
