Hi

Here is something to think about. According to JWs, growth means Jehover's blessing. So decline means Jehover's curse. JWD is growing faster than the JWs, so does that mean JWD has Jehover's blessing. ??
The JWs will simply say that the "LOVE OF THE GREATER NUMBER HAS COOLED OFF" They will always say that
Now I'm jealous. In our area, the congregations are intact and have been for some time, albeit with stagnant growth. They had a growth spurt in the mid 1980s, where one congregation split into 4. Then, from 1987, it slowed down. During the 1990s, attendance slowed down sharply for a while. Unfortunately, it picked up again in the late 1990s. One boasting session I went to had more than 140 in attendance for a regular Public Talk/Puketower study.
From what I saw on the Internet, there are the same number of congregations in the area that there were when I left. The phone book also has the same number. I can't wait for some of them to have meeting attendance in the teens or lower 20s on a regular Sunday, and have them have to merge or be disbanded. I would like to see it get so there is one congregation serving everything east of the Mississippi and one serving everything west. Better yet, have Ted Jaracz have to do all the work himself and accomplish precisely nothing.
Also in Greater London:
Keston + West Wickham have merged recently
Interesting. There are mergers everywhere.
There are mergers everywhere, man, mergers everywhere, man
'Cross the deserts bare, man, I've breathed the kingdom air, man
Of JWs, I've had my share, man, mergers everywhere
You mean the kingdom of the idiots is growing weaker and weaker ...... Hallelujah !
Thats why they did not publish the annual report just yet. They are hopin that Jehobah will give a last minute boost to the numbers.
Thats right cultswatter they are obviously not proud of the recent reports coming out of N. America and probably Europe
In years past they would boast with great pride in their increase , perhaps not any more
Babylons waters are definitely drying up
