We were in Kenya for less than a year. Then in 1997 we were invited to Bethel in Brooklyn, New York. Now we were in a country where there was material prosperity, which can bring its own problems. (Proverbs 30:8, 9) But even in such a country, spirituality abounds. Our brothers use their time and assets, not enrich themselves, but to support the good work of Jehovah's organization.
Over the years, we have seen the faith of our fellow Witnesses in a variety of circumstances. In Ireland, faith amid a civil strife. In Africa, faith amid poverty and isolation. In the United States, faith amid prosperity. How joyful Jehovah must be as he looks down and sees people who show their love for him in all sorts of situations!
