    Seems like JWs in Denmark are using a new tactic to reach people not at home - text messages...

    It's in Swedish but translates with Google Translate quite nicely.

    I wonder how they get the cell phone numbers?

    Anyway, I would have thought that spamming people with texts would have a negative effect......around here at least.

    Cool thanks - I had heard about it from the brief article on the inside cover of Ekstra Bladet earlier this week, but didn't think much of it when I was told as it was so brief.

    But the original article in BT is much more interesting, so thanks.

    BTW - seems like the trend nowadays is to get apartment and house doorbells linked to your cell phone. When someone presses the doorbell - it rings the householder on their cell phone, so you end up talking to them like it was an intercom.

    Denmark has "enjoyed" having roughly 13,000 to 14,000 active Witnesses since 1984 - more than 32 years with no appreciable growth - or a revolving door of growth and stagnation.

    Little wonder they are seeking ways to contact people!

    I know round my way in the UK congregation members will text their calls and count them as RV's and even Bible Studies if there are enough of them (texts).
