    Hello Everyone!!

    Just this morning my mother phoned me to tell me that a lady she had previously studied with years ago, had called her this morning with news that her church was having a special serman designed to help those who have left the Watchtower. My mother asked, "Is there really that many leaving in this area?" She said "Oh, Yes!" That was amazing!! I have been out for about a year and a half, and know of a few that have been Df'd since then, but not sure who they all are, or what has happened to them.

    My mom and dad left the organization about 3 1/2- 4 years ago. My mom had lost contact with this lady long ago, but had often wished she could one day find her and tell her that they (my parents) left the organization. Well, I ran into her, and gave her number to my mom. She quickly called her, and told her how glad she was she never progressed to baptism, and about them leaving the Borg.

    Anyhow.. just thought I would share this with you all. Thought it was pretty interesting!!

    Oh..one more thing..I understand one of the halls here had a talk on Apostacy as a local needs part. Seems we have them "shaking in their boots!!"

    Sincerely,

    Lady Liberty

    Could be risky. All you need is an Elder to attend in order to find out who all the faders are who doubt the Mother Org, and "Bang!" - mass disfellowshipping all round!

    I doubt a fader would go to something like that. And certainly no Elder would go. If they walk through the doors of babylon their hearts turn to stone instantly. (Romans 205, verse 76).

    And certainly no Elder would go.

    Not if the local BOE was aware of this meeting and its potential for identifying future disfellowshipping targets?

    No, no Elder would go, though they might park outside to see who went in...

    Time to break out the Burkhas!!!

    As it turns out it is not a serman at all. It is a actual "class" at the church!! I bet I would know everyone there!
