Pure in heart
Apr. 7, 2007 11:19 PM Blessed are the pure in heart , for they shall see God.
He walked through the neighborhood on the weekend afternoon, pushing the stroller that carried his two young children, stopping house by house to spread his message. Some people weren't home. Some just pretended not to be. Some politely dismissed him. Others were not so polite.
Still, Tom Horton pressed on, as he does whenever his schedule allows. The Tempe man knows that most people bristle at the idea of a Jehovah's Witness at their door. But he also knows that this simple act of spreading the message of the Bible is commanded of him. "Basically, I'm trying to follow by example the work of the disciples," Horton said.
It is a task that brings much effort for little personal reward. This is not a passive act, like attending a service, but a rather active one. There is not a hidden societal or secular reward. The evangelizing is done for the pure sake of following a set of beliefs.
So ingrained is this duty that Horton, after talking to a reporter on a sidewalk, became reluctant. He did not want to be photographed, afraid that being singled out in the newspaper would make it seem as if he were seeking glory. That, he feared, would take away from his mission.
"There are so many others," Horton said, "who do much more than I do." [email protected] WRITE NEWS DESK

Danny Haszard comment--I went door to door from 1957-1992 as a baby in a stroller also,...the Jehovah's Witnesses are an intrusive cult with a bogus cult message anduse their own babies as "human shields". Below Watchtower cult using kids as 'human shields' * * * * * making the grade 4/3

Unit success story
Although unsure of the recovery of her ankle, Allison is very thankful for her life, which she credits to the team in the Center for Blood Conservation at Grant. The center is the first of its kind in Columbus and the area which provides patients a blood transfusion-free surgery. For Allison, her choice to not take blood transfusions is a matter of faith. "My belief is I don't take blood transfusions because blood is sacred and it represents life and God gives us life. It's not up to us (to give life)," she said. Although her hemoglobin count was dangerously low at times, the methods in the unit progressively raised it from two points to around seven by the time she left the hospital at the end of last week - normal range is between 11 and 13 points. "I'm glad they took me to Grant because if they took me anywhere else, they may not have had the technology I needed," she said, adding that thinking of her family needing her helped keep her going. Aside from the Blood Conservation team, she had one special nurse - who said she was from the Chillicothe area - who helped her calm down after coming to and realizing what had happened. "I have no clue who she was ... All of the nurses were great, but there's one in Chillicothe who really encouraged me. She made me focus," she said.
Determination
Focus is something Allison has been keeping for quite some time. Growing up in Los Angeles, she focused on dancing and dancing better .......Arthur may even go on to do the same clogging certification that Allison did to help out. Her Tiny Tots class has been continuing without missing a beat, too. After realizing how full her plate was with the new baby and her other classes, Allison hired Rhonda Carver to teach the toddlers so they would get the dedication she felt she couldn't give. "I'm looking into different options," she said. "Maybe an assistant teacher. I still want to do choreography. I can hardly give that up, it's my baby," she said. Part of her mission with N'Step was to create a fun environment for the children - allowing them to pick what level of competition they wanted, whether purely just dance classes, performances or full-fledged competition - and at an affordable rate. When they make it to national competition - which is rare because of the cost associated - they have won at times, both as a team and individually. "It's been great and I don't want to lose it," she said. "I have to keep on trying to keep going ... So many on my team have backed me up ... it makes me feel like I need to give them something back in return." Allison's relationship with God and her family is where she continues to draw strength. People from her church, The Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, come to sit with her during the day while her family works - helping her with her daughter and other things that need done...... ------------ (My comment-Fine wholesome article except it's a 'puff piece' and exalts the Watchtower cult and falsely paints them as "normal" when we know what would happen if we JW's set up a dance shop.
It would be considered 'worldly' and we would be shunned.
The Watchtower religion always finds a way to turn adversity of their followers into an info-commercial advertisment of it's creeds.
Their funeral memorial services are the same way an hour long info-commercial for the Watchtower cult,instead of comforting the bereaved.) * * * * *
