Mom studied with a woman who had six kids. Of course, the woman was looking for a free babysitter, so she asked for me to come study with her kids on Saturday mornings. What were my parents thinking of? They would drop me off for the study, and go do return visits. Once, the Grandfather was in the house, and kept urging me to come to the back bedroom to "Come see!" I was maybe 15 or 16, and that scared the crap outta me! I shudder now to think, if those kids hadn't been in the house!

as a JW did you ever find yourself in a dangerous situation because of calling on someone who was dangerous?
Dangerous Situation? Would you define being locked inside a house and threatened with a loaded shotgun a dangerous situation? The fact the 'householder' quite obviously had an emotional condition at the time didn't help either.
Do you feel, or did you feel you would have had Divine protection in such cases?
At the time I just wanted to get the heck out of there.... Divine protection never occured to me.
Has anyone ever been 'hurt' in the field service?
Hurt? Only when I slid down a steep driveway ripped up my skirt along the process and ripped up the backs of my thighs.... hmmm fond memories.
