First, is what happened to us at the hazembullers house! we went to eat lunch with this family! well first off i have got to say to alot of the new area that i am in is like really rich! and the live in the rich part! so we knocked on there mansion door and the answered and invited us in! brother hazembuller then invited us to the bathroom so that we could wash our hands! then we got invited to there dining hall! with this big long table and only for seats! i felt so sufisticated! but i also felt like i had to sit up perfectly strainght the whole time to fit in with every thing else! haha we ate an awesome lunch with mashed potatos and milinaesa! but after the dinner brother hazembuller left the room to go get something and he came back with 300 pesos... he handed them to me and said this is for you and your companion to split for what ever you might need! There is a rule that we cant take money from anyone... i told him that and he said i know that god wouldnt disaprove of this because i know that you guys will make good decisions with the money! but its your choice. i told him thank you so much for you genourosity but we cant take this money. he said ok and then we all got up and left. we could have used to money so easily. but i know that we will be blessed for our obedience!
next, on tuesday we were looking for a less active member! we ask this one drunk guy josé if he knew her and he said no but then we asked him if we could talk to him! he let us in! the night before was the 31st so he still had a pretty big hang over and he was kind of in and out of it! but i invited him to not dirnk smoke or drug for the next 3 days and he excepted! we left because he wasnt in any condition to be taught... we came back a few days latter and he had done it!! we taught him and he accepted it very well! he said he would come to church! so we told him we were going to come bysunday morning to walk to the church together! so we did but we were like 15 minutes late... but it was a little miricle because if we had come at the right time he wouldnt have been able to come! after church he found 1 kilo of copper! that will sell for 70 pesos! his family is in a rough time... they just sold there computer so he took that as an awesome blessing!! he is aweosme and we are very blessed!
i love you all so much! do what you know is right no matter what any one else says!!
Love, Elder Groen
