Editing Nico's Youth Group Years (section)

=== How Sofia Got Him There ===
Nico's cousin Sofia wanted to bring him to the youth group. His response was immediate and dismissive: youth group was for kids, and he was an adult. He would stay with the home group. Sofia did not accept this refusal.

She employed a clever strategy. While they were all sitting at a table together during the Home group, Sofia mentioned Nico's resistance to Asur, one of the youth leaders - Nico quickly tried to deny it. But Asur turned to him and asked simply: "Do you have plans tomorrow?" Nico said no — and with that, he was trapped. If he refused now, it would be obvious that he simply did not want to attend. Through this simple social maneuver, he found himself committed to attending the youth group. 

On November 5, 2021, Nico Hartung walked into the youth group of Missionswerk Strahlen der Freude for the first time—not out of spiritual hunger, but because he had been outmaneuvered by his cousin.
