Do you think that JW's are integrating more into society these days or not making any progress?
I went to a rock concert in a park on Satuday night, and I saw 2 young JW's there. Their parents are JW's and the father is an elder and they go to every meeting and go out in the service regularly.
That concert was to raise money for ex-alcoholics and ex drug attics and people following therapy for this.
I've been going to that concert to raise money once a year, since over 10 years, and never saw 1 JW there in the past.
I was very surprised to see them there. They saw me and waved hello. I said hello too, but didn't go talk to them.
So, I was just wondering if JW's are finally changing a bit, and going out more to places where they wouldn't have wanted to be seen before.
Just last year, I saw another JW couple watching a parade for the "St John the baptist" parade on June 24th. This parade is to celebrate Quebec as a nation, and has a separatist agenda to it too.
Gee, as a witness, I was always afraid to be seen there.
