Our studies


We've been conducting quite a few studies in our territory and some have been making remarkable progress. In September the young deaf girl Cat has been studying with attended our monthy ASL meeting at our kingdom hall. It took some work to get her there, she lives a car and a boat ride away from us. So, altogether it took us an hour to pick her up and an hour to take her back home. But, it was worth it. Although, she and her mother have often been out of town lately, she is making wonderful progress with her studies and her knowledge of sign language. Its been a true joy and a blessing to teach her.


Months ago I began leaving magazines with a woman named Carmelle who works as a butcher at the town market. Soon the placements led to questions and good bible conversations and before Cat started a study with her. However, she was very interested in getting her kids to learn about the bible as well. So now Cat and I can be found on various days during the week studying in her butcher stand with either her, her son, and her daughter. Her husband is a Hindu but he respects all religions so although he hasn't accepted a study yet he and I have regular bible discussions and he regualarly accepts the magazines. Carmelle and her children have started attending Sunday meetings.

  1. What a wonderful legacy you both have made. Jehovah will bless you for your kindness to others. I know you guy's are anxious to see your friends in NYC as I am sure they are anxious to see you. One thing for sure, this will go down in your memory book for life. May Jehovah go with you so as to have a safe trip back home. Love you both, Grandma Margo
