It took about seven hours and putting 170 miles on my car, but I finished up all of the KH's I was assigned by Lin and Jesika (not very biblical for them to take the lead over a man like that! ) Irving- 2804 Rock Island Road Euless/Bedford- 490 Westpark Way (off 183/121 Junction) Grapevine- 3408 Hall Johnson Road (off Pool Road) Flower Mound- 4611 Kirkpatrick Lane Keller- 2049 Willis Lane Arlington- 5700 Kelly Elliott Road ...... - 1115 W. Park Row Drive Grand Prarie- 2330 Corn Valley Road Farmers Branch- 2400 Havenhurst Avenue
Three of them had JWs there. The first one (Grapevine) had a man and a woman standing just outside the main entrance with a truck. I handed my lamb and flyers to the man and said, "Here, this is for the Silent Lambs." and started to leave. He looked at it for a few seconds and responded by trying to hand them back saying, "No thanks". I turned and said with a smile, "Oh, there yours to keep!" and got in my car and left. He was friendly but obviously upset by my presence.
By the time I got to the second hall with JWs (Farmers Branch ) it was getting late and the JWs were arriving for the meeting. At the time no one was outside, but there were a few parked cars. First I placed my flyers in the door and the Lamb at the base of the door. Then I went back to my car and got some flyers and started putting them on all of the cars there. By the time I got to about the 5th car the brothers were coming out like ants from a hill that was just stepped on. The "Alpha Male" asked: "What are you doing?" I replied with a smile, "Just passing out flyers.", finished the car I was on and started on the next. The man was not happy about that so he said, "Sir, this is private property, I'll have to ask you to leave." I replied, again with a smile: "Sure." and promptly got in my car and left... making sure I smiled and waved to the man as I drove past on the street. He didn't wave back.
The third one (Irving ) also had JWs arriving for the meeting. It was a Spanish speaking congregation so I really was not able to communicate effectively. I drove up to the "drop off" in front of the main entrance and handed my flyers and Lamb to two young men at the door. I did not try to go in. I just said, "Here, could you make sure the elders get this." The one guy that accepted them obviously did not speak English and stammered a bit not knowing how to respond to me, the other guy then took them from him. I don't know if he spoke English or not. I then got back in my car and left.
The rest of the KH's either did not have anyone there or had cars on which I placed flyers.
Accomplished! The know we're here! .
