Coming home from the meeting, we got on the elevator of our apartment with a young man. He noticed our meeting books and asked if we were Jehovah's Witnesses. He said his Mom and grandmother were JW's back in the U.S. and was wondering if we had the book about different religions (Mankinds Search for God). Of course, we know the book! He said he was thinking about looking into religion and that he needed something different in his life. He lives on the floor below our apartment and had noticed that we seem to go to meetings on Tuesday nights.
We will keep you up to date if anything comes of it. It got me thinking that we can give a witness even when we aren't aware.

New Service Year
Mark and I had a very nice start for the new service year today. Although I had to work in the morning, we made arrangements to go out this afternoon. We are so happy to say that we were able to make contact with an old bible study that wants to continue to study. We stopped by her place of work and we talked about an hour. She just got back from a trip to Italy and happened to visit the Vatican. That made a big impression on her and she had so many questions about the practices and businesses she saw and what the bible teaches. What a nice way to start the new year!
