We are your 2nd cousins - the ones you met during the thunder/rain-wind storm canoeing at Smith & Morehouse a while back.
Reminder:
Glen is son of Gerrit H. and grandson of Jerry(Gerrit) Steenblik and
Jayne was a teacher at Willow Canyon Elem for 7 years.
We
are now serving a mission in the France Paris Mission and have been
assigned to Brussels, the northern border of the Paris Mission, to work
with YSAs, missionaries and attend to some office duties as we process
mail concerning legality and drivers license for missionaries in Belgium.
We
are excited to tell you we had your darling son Ben and his companion
to dinner last night! And are happy to report how happy and healthy he
looks. After dinner we drove them back to Leuven, about a 20 min.
drive from our apartment in Brussels. We had a great time with them.
This
is how we made connections: Since we handle the legality papers for
missionaries in Belgium, we noticed (a couple of months ago) an
envelope labeled "Elder Benjamin John Steenblik". We finally got to meet
him at the church during Gen. Conf. Priesthood session and again at our
church when his stake came for Stake Conf. We got his phone # so we
could arrange a time to meet for dinner. The great part is our address
is in his sector - (shared space with the French speakers from our
mission & Dutch speakers from the Netherlands mission) - SO it was
possible for him to come to our apartment for dinner. Viola! We
finally worked it out and had a delightful evening with him and his
comp. Elder Cockbain.
We
may try again to call you, so if you see a weird number on phone it
might be us. our cell is 04 90 42 14 79 - We have international
capability so we can call you, but probably difficult for you to call
us.
Bonne journée! - Have a good day!
