A sister from Brazil (Jael W.) and I were in a car group. We got left off at an apartment complex. We are only allowed to work 4 units at a time then we must leave. Our first call was on a woman from India. She answered the door with the usual “hello”. She spoke very good English. We mentioned our purpose for being there and this woman looks around like she’s afraid of being spied on and quietly pulls us in to her house. We hesitated but on entering her apartment we offered the magazines. She said, “I want to learn to become a Christian, but you must not tell my husband.” We then offered a free home bible study. She accepted. Jael and another sister have now been studying with her for about 3 weeks at the time of this writing. She has been making very good progress and absorbs everything told to her. Then last week she says that her husband, who we have now learned was part of an arranged marriage and that she is either afraid of him or doesn’t really like him and appears not to even know him very well (not sure which), but he has gotten a job transfer and is scheduled to move to the Intel plant in Ohio. I think that this week will be the last weeks study. I hope to hear a follow up of this lady in continuing her studies. Hopefully now that she has moved will continue to find a way to keep up her studies without too much resistance.
That angel flying in mid heaven (Rev. 14:6) strikes again.
