Known for Good Deeds
Tabitha was full of good deeds and acts of mercy. She made clothing for widows and helped those in need in Joppa.
39So Peter got up and went with them. When he arrived, they took him to the upstairs room, and all the widows stood around him weeping and showing him the robes and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was with them.

40Peter sent them all out of the room, knelt down, and prayed. Then he turned to the body and said, "Tabitha, get up." She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter she sat up.
