An Australian brother who with his wife is serving in the traveling work in Tuvalu tells us of his experience:

“My wife and I were invited to attend a meal at the home of the Prime Minister of Tuvalu. The occasion was the visit of Australia’s Minister for Foreign Affairs.

“Later in the evening, we attended some local entertainment of traditional dancing. Afterward the Governor General of Tuvalu approached us and mentioned that some Witnesses had visited his residence the week before and had left some copies of the Watchtower and Awake! magazines. He noticed on the back of one of the magazines an advertisement for the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures and wanted to know how he could get one locally. We stated that we would gladly give him a copy. The next Sunday, I went up to his residence with the Bible, and we had a fine discussion for about an hour. He mentioned how much he appreciated our work and publications. In fact, when we arrived at his home, his wife was reading the Live Forever book in Tuvaluan. So we were happy to be able to witness to some ‘who are in high station.’”​—1 Timothy 2:1-4.
