"may jehovah have pitty on the elders of this congregation, and forgive them for their wrongfullness!"

Enlighten the elders to see that your relative should not have been disfellowshipped in the first place.

Yes! Ankh... thanks LittleToe... that would have bothered me all day!

I remember it so vividly." It is to you Jehovah that we asked to have approach to your high and lofty throne of undeserved kindness upon undeserved kindness, you the one whom we are devoted to, we thank you for all your loving kindness and many mercies and the way you forgive all of us in a large way in the name of our Lord and savior Jesus we address you Amen."

Nothing about the Elders, Bethelites, or the C.O. Just a reminder about who it is that does the forgiving of us all. How many said amen to that prayer, I don't know. However the friend all approach me and were very kind, not so half the Elder Body.

That ever happen to you? It happened to me the night I was deleted as an Elder. I stepped down, so the C.O. told the Body to have me close with prayer so the Congregation wouldn't gossip about the reason why I stepped down

##########

it is often done to show the congo that the elder is still to be treated as a bro, that the reason for his deletion is not due to WRong doing per say

it is like a "QUE" to the congo- This is what a DO told the elder body once at the sat meeting during the circiut assembly for the question had come up about the exact same thing

just a fyi

It meant you were still "in good standing". I bet they don't do that anymore.

LittleToe

Which just goes to show how much is about appearances.

BlueBlades:

What do you think I said in the closing prayer? What would you of said if that happened to you?

"Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do!"

JT

I bet they don't do that anymore

Blueblades,
you were not one of those "brothers" whose "amen" would come after 10 minutes and several yawnings from the audience, were you?
