Friends in Florida


Recommended Posts

I have been preaching online

To a guy from Florida.

His name is Mike.

His parents were in Gilead school.

Pioneers.

They have passed away.

He's been out for a while.

I think he is inactive.

After finding out he still loves the bible.

I asked did he have our

New addition the Silver Bible.

No he said.

So i downloaded

It and shared

He was impressed.

I asked him had he seen our

New style of preaching.

No he said. I shared the Manhattan project.

He was amazed.

He posted yesterday another topic.

A guy had beaten his 2 yrs old.

I said won't it be nice when we won't have to read these

Stories any more.

He asked how much

Longer.

I said I don't predict or know.

But given that it's 2014.

100yr since.

Our theme text is

Let God's kingdom come

And every watchtower has been on the Kingdom.

So i guess soon.

I said there's an international

Assembly this year.

He asked when.

He would love to know

When & where in Florida.

I have been encouraging to get back to the Meetings.

He doesn't drive.

Can anyone help please?

Where in Florida does he live? Florida is a big place ....

 

There are several Conventions in Florida but I don't think any of the International ones are here.

Thanks yeah. I am not sure which part  I think its Jacksonville area.

He his own Building company. Lifetime Services..

it seems like he is keen. & wants the new Bible.

 

He said he's had some let downs before. He knows he should handle things differently & is appreciative for the encouragement.

I hope to find a Brother if possible they may want to help him.

& let him know the assembly... I only wish I could be in Florida. lols.

I would love to put him in touch with a nice Brother.

I keep praying for this.

He has said he would like to find a way back. This is his goal.

Gabe..I'm sure John knows brothers in Jaçksonville..I believe I remember a post where he said he will be working there at the convention..also ..remember David Crum from Meekspace? He lives in Jacksonville..Orange Park is a suburb area a little southwest of Jacksonville..Did you encourage Mike to watch the Bible Study video on jw.org? The content is a real eyeopener..even if one knows the truth..it's a reminder of why things are the way they are!

The collage I posted gives Mike's phone number if a brother wants to talk to him..

Thanks Sunray.

Yeah I haven't shown him this video yet.

It's a good idea.

I have been taking baby steps with him.

Hope it comes across the right way.

Is meek space up & running yet?

I would love to get in touch with David Crum.

I want to also ask Mike to see how he feels about the matter. ..

Maybe he will be happy.

I do pray.

Especially after the assembly

Yesterday.

There was a similar

Experience to his.

&

After 20/30 yrs.

The Sister

Came back.

I just sent him a message

To see if it's ok for a Brother to get in contact with him.

So when I have his permission.

I will post what he agrees on.

Thanks Sunray. Xoxoxo agape.

Ok he said he is 30hrs away from Orange County.

He doesn't mind

If someone gets in touch with him.

He's fine with that.

Gabe,

 

Yes, I will be in Jacksonville for the Convention. There are two in Jacksonville - I will be there July 4-6. The other one is July 18-20.

 

Orange Park is not that far from here and I do know several Brothers in that area.

 

I will pass along to someone his contact information.

 

I was out of town yesterday and did not get a chance to check in here or I would have replied sooner.

Thanks John 

I will pass those dates onto him. 

he knows me as Surfergirl Gabe. as that is my Profile name also on Google Plus.

 

& thats ok. I have been wondering which way to send him & who can help him. He has shared some nice experiences when his Mum was around.

Its hard to make for sure if he's genuine over the net. But last couple replies. He has said he appreciates any encouragement.

 

A brother on Google Plus had shared last weeks day Text & I shared it with him.

He says his mum would read the scripture to him & it was his fav.

I will keep ya posted too.
