JWs are supposed to all be "ministers". Actually, because of their status, they can avoid the military, perform wedding ceremonies and have the same rank as "clergyman". ALL Witnesses, once baptized AUTOMATICALLY become "ministers"........ Describe what type of "minister" you were.

I performed several marriages, did funeral rituals, gave sermons at many KHs, assemblies etc. I guess I was a minister in a worldly sense and my draft classification as a minister was OK.

Very long, boring, and futile. A terrible waste of 20 years.

Witnesses aren't "real" ministers! Yet the Watchtower makes them believe they're better than any religious graduate with a degree. -

I never felt like a religious minister.
First of all I hate titles. I just considered myself a Christian and still do.

But being a "minister" is certainly a title. JWs who never go from house to house or even actively preach are still considered "ministers".

I was the fast food minister. I knew all the good spots to stop for breaks.
