Federal law allows us to call at your door....and it also requires us to honor a 'No Trespass' sign.

None of us wants to break the law, we are commanded to obey the law..so, get a sign if you dont want to be offended by a couple of old grammas that want to talk with you for a couple of minutes....

I know what we are instructed to do and say.

Obviously I don't know every other Witness but that's not really needed.

We consider ourselves Brothers and Sisters and we have a common goal of preaching about Gods Kingdom, just like Jesus did when he was here on Earth.

I realize that some towns or cities have a different, I don't know the correct word, maybe 'culture'?

I was born in SoCal, have lived in a few different places, now I live in northern Idaho.

Each place had its own way, midwest states are pretty laid back, New York and Los Angeles are pretty busy.. I had to adapt my style to reach people that were busy and didn't have a lot of time...

Maybe where you live my Brothers and Sisters have adapted their tactics to reach more people, I dunno....

One thing I do know, for sure, they are out there, in the public eye, on their own dime and time, trying to reach the meek people, to share a life saving message...

Yeah, this is a funny urban legend. It may work on the Mormon missionaries, not so much on us Witnesses..

If I am walking up to your house and see you carrying groceries in I will offer to help.

I won't waste my time mowing your yard, I have much more important things to do...

You are correct.

Back in the 70's when I started going door to door it was a lot different than how we do it now..

Get on the do not call list if you really dont want to be visited by friendly people that have your well being in mind and just want to help you..

We are offering free home Bible studies to those that have a humble heart and want to know What The Bible Really Teaches...

If that's not you, put up a No Trespassing sign.

Our time is valuable, we would rather not waste it.
