To Martin's surprise, when she arrived with the food, everyone at the church started tipping her money.

"They ordered 10 pizzas and when I got on stage, (the pastor) had asked everybody to give me a good tip," Martin told ABC News. "Everybody at the church got up and started handing the preacher money, and it was just crazy. So many people got up. They started hugging me. It was just awesome. I couldn't help but cry. It was just amazing."

She received a total of $1,400 in tips.

Tony McAfee, the pastor at the church, said he called the Domino's store ahead of time and asked the manager if any of the drivers there was in special need of a blessing.

Martin said the money will come in especially handy with Christmas coming; she plans to use the money to buy presents for her three children.

She said it will also help her move out of her mother's house and get a place of her own.
