I have thought about creating a post about a worker of the past each Thursday. Anyone else interested in that. I would love to hear memories both positive and negative of those who have passed on.

If the workers are on the 1905 Workers List, I'm interested.

I'd like to see the 758 list... what? What do you mean "they didn't exist"??!
Ok, ok... lets start with Paul...

There was a 1800 year gap between the end of the New Testament until the first Irish workers on the 1905 list. Funny that I didn't know that until I found the old VOT in 1997. And the rest is history.

I hope your memory is good enough to have a few memories. I also knew one on the 1905 list and have a few memories. Only wish I had more.

My first memory of her was when I was quite young, maybe 10 or 11. This little old lady came to the platform to speak, and I can't remember everything she said, but she was telling her story of "finding the truth" -- in vocabulary kids could easily relate to, if I remember correctly. The highlight of her sermon for me was her telling us that at the moment she had decided she was going to commit herself to this message, that she was carrying a pail of water, and she threw it and ran to check the verse in the Bible that had clinched her decision. And after the meeting and after dinner all the kids my age were all together and we got to talking about how the little old lady had really kept them interested. They thought she was the best preacher they ever heard. I was king of impressed that all the rest of them also thought she was so great. Her name was Helen Harrison. I later learned that she was 40 years old in England when she "threw the bucket", so to speak. That would be the same spring my moth was born in Canada.
