Like many these days, Alex and Janeth Partyka who live in Baltimore, Maryland, have been driving for Lyft and Uber part time to earn some extra income. Alex and Janeth also wanted to witness to others about Jesus and the Adventist message. If they felt a passenger might be receptive, and especially when the conversation turned to religious topics, they would offer the person a small piece of literature. Sometimes, however, riders would refuse a tract when it was offered to them.

Alex and Janeth found that one of the more difficult — and intimidating — aspects of witnessing was knowing when and how to witness in a non-invasive way. Recently, Janeth started driving full time. As she did so, she also came up with an idea that has opened up many more opportunities to witness to their riders in a natural, personal way.
