In 1908, Andrásné Benedek​—a humble Hungarian woman who had become a Bible Student, as Jehovah’s Witnesses were then known—​returned to Hajdúböszörmény, in eastern Hungary, to share with others the good news that she had learned from God’s Word. Four years later, two more Bible Students returned from the United States. They had learned the truth about God and his purposes by attending some of Brother Russell’s public discourses. Brother Russell made it a practice, after such programs, to approach those in the audience whom he had seen attend several times before. He would ask: “Where are you from? What is your nationality? Would you like to return to your relatives and share the truth with them?”

Andrásné Benedek, Károly Szabó, József Kiss, and the professor from Canada are only a few of the many who learned the truth in North America and returned to Hungary in order to preach the good news.
