Jose Garcia from Old Mexico: born in poverty,
nurtured in faith, he prepared for his call.
His bishop wrote on the recommendation form:
"Brother Garcia will serve at great sacrifice to his family,
...
he [has been the principal means of economic support
of the family].
He has but one possession--a treasured stamp
collection--which he is willing to sell, if necessary,
to help finance his mission."
President Kimball listened attentively
as this information was read, and then responded:
"Have him sell his stamp collection.
The sacrifice will be to him an eternal blessing."
