Storyline

Reverend Barton has hired Freddie Kirby, a professional fund-raiser, to raise money for their organ fund as the fund, which has been in existence for ten years, only has just over $100 in it, and they need $2,000 for the new organ. The valley residents soon blindly follow Freddie in whatever he suggests and trusts him with their money. But Freddie is not all that he appears, as his company plans to abscond with the money while leaving the church with an inferior second hand organ worth $20. As all the residents of the valley continually thank Freddie for his hard and noble work, will guilt get the better of him, and even if so will he be able to do the right thing with his boss Marco still wanting to pull the scam?
