No Longer a Coward

ASI member Patti Guthrie shared her experiences going "Door-to-door in Dunsmuir" in the Winter 2010 issue of Inside ASI.

Since then, she has visited several churches sharing her vision for the door-to-door ministry concept. She and her family recently visited the tiny town of Etna, Calif., presenting the door-to-door concept and visiting Etna residents with the local church members.

Back at home in Mt. Shasta, Calif., Guthrie had an inspiring door-to-door encounter with a fellow church member. She tells her story...

"One Sabbath, Rose Price, an elderly lady in our church, asked for some literature to share with her neighbors. That afternon, I called and asked if she'd like some help. She said, 'Sure. Why don't you come at 3 o'clock.'

"Meanwhile, her 20-something grandson who lives with her called back and said, 'What are you going to do with my grandma? She can hardly walk.'
