I was sitting with my co-rover Yitzchok in the ancient synagogue early morning saying Psalms. Suddenly, a couple enters. The man looks around, and approaches me. I look up with a smile and ask if there is anything I can do for him. In English, he tells me that he wants to recite the Amidah (silent prayer). I lend him my prayerbook. He spends a few minutes praying, kisses the book and walks out.
A few minutes later, they return with another couple. He introduces us to their friends with whom they are on a cruise, and explains that he had originally come because he needed a favor from G‑d. Their fellow traveler had lost her wallet which contained some very important documents. No sooner had he finished praying when he got a telephone call from someone who had found the wallet, and now they all came back to say thank you to G‑d.
Nu Hearing stories like this is wonderful because it reaffirms what we know already: That G-d looks after us and hears our tfillos (prayers). But, to me at least, the most beautiful part of the story is that there were 'rovers' there. We already know G-d does his job, that's a given. That we Jews do our job is good news.
