    I'd tell him the frozen food section is in the middle of the safeway store.

    I seem to remember a very nervy elder with an overblown sense of entitlement who made an announcement that he didn't like the homemade food that was being prepared for the pioneers. (From what I heard it was delicious food prepared by very capable sisters I knew and I would have been glad to eat it.) I thought to myself WTF??? I would have told him where to go and how to get there.

    I also didn't approve of his asking for $$$ to feed the pioneers (as if I owed them something!) I only gave once, but never again!

    I would think it would SOMEONE ELSE in the congregation who would ask this on BEHALF of the brother if the elders felt it was needed. This guy has some balls.

    It's not wrong to ask for help.

    Just the wrong 'platform.' (no pun intended)
