Let me guess, the one who was baptized was a child of someone already a Witness?
One person got baptized at Circuit Ass. today (powerhouse circuit)

Wow! One whole person eh? That's got to be embarassing...........I wonder: does anyone know of any assemblies where there was NO ONE gettting baptized? That would be sweet to witness.

Are you going to have to go to any of the summer conventions, Mary? Maybe you'll get lucky and attend one with NO baptisms. lol Of course, if you're really lucky, you won't have to go at all.

I seem to recall a post on JWD about an assembly (CA) where nobody was baptized. I think this will be more and more common as time goes on. They will either have to get actors to fill in and keep the program from seeming to be too stupid or maybe they could get one of those life sized blowup dolls from errr.....to fill in as a baptisimal candidate. -

Spoke with the brother and he said it wasn't a teenager, so it probably was someones bible study. In any event, since it is in NYC and it was once a area thriving with activity and growth, it seems that there is a real slowdown taking place. Alot of the english congregations have pityful attendence, to the point that more are continuing to merge. The foreign language groups continue to grow though (I guess most don't have internet connections) But even so, there seems to be more of a drain than people coming in.
