“Once, when Elder Parthenia was in the hospital, a man and his son went to Elder Ambrose Lazarus.
—Elder, we have come here to receive your blessing.
The elder gave many blessings, but at some
point he said to him:
—My child, help.
Oh, elder, what should I help?
To give to the world, to help the world.
Because the Lord gives to you.
-But, elder, am I a shipowner? I have little
money.
—Come, let me tell you... If I had the opportunity to
drill down now, to hear the voice of
the shipwrights, you wouldn't want to be like that. Do you know what
they are going through? You can't imagine Eternity! Give! You have! And you also have people in your neighborhood who
need it. Help!
-Okay, elder, he said and left"
