Since I have awakened and educated my elders and friends about our fraudulent NWT, and a few other things, three elders w/families have changed halls, so has my wife, several pubs have dropped out, the finances are a wreck, attendance is down by at least 30%, and I am sooooo afraid they may just sell the hall and disolve the congo as it was real small to start with....................oompa....my son still goes there and keep me informed

AN INCREASING PERCENTAGE OF ELDERS AND MINISTERIAL SERVANTS TO PUBLISHERS COMMONLY INDICATES A SLOWER RATE OF GROWTH -- THE ONES WHO HAVE JUST "STUCK AROUND" GET APPOINTED TO HIGHER POSITIONS, THUS THE CONGREGATION ACQUIRES A GLUT OF QUALIFIED ONES WITH NOTHING TO DO.

And He Ran
I think in some parts of England at least the English-speaking congs are declining in number as more and more people decide to join the local Chinese or Punjabi or Albanian to "serve where the need is great". I think it's actually to relieve the boredom of sitting through the meetings in a language you can understand. Far better to join a foreign-language group where you can at least learn a foreign language, as opposed to just getting bored.
