Service Experience

We've had big privilege to participate often in Metropolitan witnessing were  we've had some awesome experiences. There are several locations in Cuenca; the bus terminal, Parque Paraiso and we recently started participating at the newest location, Cuenca's biggest market, Feria Libre. As a result, we have been able to start a few extra studies. Just last week we started a study with a man, and, as he said himself, he wants everyone in his family, including kids, to study the bible with us.

Field Service is really productive as well. Said just plain and simple, there's just not enough time to dedicate to "everyone" that shows interest. As soon as i arrived to Ecuador I was eager to have studies, and a sister told me: "just wait, you will have as many studies as you want".

We have a few studies that are progressing very well and even coming to meetings. But there's one very special to me. Her name is Viviana, i found her as a result of metropolitan witnessing. From the very first time I came to her house she asked me to come in. I offered to study and she agreed right away to whatever time was convenient for me. That same day I invited her to the meetings, she asked the time and said she will be ready. The time for the meeting came, I called expecting to have an excuse from her, but to my surprise she tells me: "I'm ready, just waiting for you". I could not believe it! She loved the meeting. During the Watchtower she noticed that everyone had their study article highlighted, she said "that's why everyone is able to comment soo nicely, of course, everyone got the answers already highlighted...can I have my copy so I can get ready for next week?". So I gave her a copy of the study Watchtower and the following week she was ready to answer, raised her hand about 5 times (I counted them haha). She's been coming to the meeting with her young daughter ever since (about 3 months already) and about a month ago her husband started coming too. Oh and after 3 meetings she started wearing a skirt, dressing just like a sister. She prepares for every study reading every single bible scripture, reads the public watchtower and awake pretty much the same day she receives them, and has been reading frequently the family happiness book and the bible. She's so eager to learn more that she's asked me to study twice a week. I can see that shine in her eyes whenever she learns something new as she's already discovered that a lot of what she has been taught all her life has been lies.
I'm so grateful to Jehovah for using me to teach people like her about the truth.
Anyway, this is my favorite latest experience. This is a great place to preach and have the joy of helping others learn the truth. Come, spend some time and experience it for yourselves....:) It is the best life ever!!!
