"I kicked my slides off and I took my I.D. off, threw my wallet, and I just ran across in front of all the cars. I didn't care that there were cars coming," Payne told Good Morning America.
Sunday morning, a Green House International Church surprised Vinnita Williams with a brand new vehicle after their 10:30 service.
Williams says she is grateful that she can now get to work, church and take her child to daycare.
