He was one of the founders of the Plymouth Brethren movement. Later during the split his group was labelled as the Open Brethren.
He cared for 10,024 orphans during his lifetime, and provided educational opportunities for the orphans to the point that he was even accused by some of raising the poor above their natural station in British life.

Person
George Müller was a Christian evangelist who died on March 10, 1898. He was born on September 27, 1805, and lived until March 10, 1898. He was one of the people who started the movement of the Plymouth Brethren. His group was called the Open Brethren after the split. During his life, he took care of 10,024 orphans and helped them get an education. Some people said he put the poor above their place in British society since he helped them get an education. He set up 117 schools where more than 120,000 people got a Christian education. Müller and his wife started helping orphans in 1836, when they set up their own rented home at 6 Wilson Street, Bristol, to house 30 girls. Soon after that, three more houses on Wilson Street were set up for boys, girls, and younger kids, bringing the total number of kids who could be cared for to 130.¿
