maybe so....
I thought I saw one of the miners hold up a NWT when being rescued from the mine.
Maybe one of you noticed it too.
Here is an email I received:
AND THE TRUTH CAME ILLUMINATING AT 700 METERS OF DEPTH
Translation of the letter of this miner:
08/30/10...This give to my mom:...JEHOVAH WITNESSES
Gentlemen
In what way and with what words can I thank you for the nice gesture to pray for me.
How can I thank you for the greatness of your hearts and your intentions, because I know and see what you do with great sacrifice for others; I know it because my mother María Villarroel Casanova is one of you, for many years..
This gesture only gives lights that you are going for the right way, and towards God; and we all who are lost in the world need your words and your deep commitment to the community to show people with Bible studies, going from house to house, walking as hardworking as I see you, in a selfless work so motivated keep you all. Withstanding the slamming doors of the people who do not want to receive you, withstanding people who just want to argue with you.
For ever thank you for your prayers that have helped us a lot!
I just ask from the depths in which I am, that this little letter of thanks, reaches your highest authorities and all of you, please.
FULFILL MY WISH
From the first days of confinement until now, we pray every day. There was no Bible down here. But one of those days, before they found us, a partner found in his bag two magazines, and guess what, they were two Awake magazines from the Jehovah's Witnesses.
I think that we all read both of them, we took turns, it was as a way to find peace somehow. That was all we had.... This really happened, I swear!
And now we have received many more and I promote them all I can among my teammates, believe me, and I will continue doing. As you can see, my pen is dying and I have no sheet; They have sent me no pencil, no paper but I got thank you!
Finally, I will pray for all of you too, and my best and sincere thanks, and many blessings for you and your family.
May God be with you. Amen
