I just survived. Attendance was down from 113 to 100. No partakers.
A sister dropped a plate of bread. apart from that it was pretty boring.
Wine did smell good right enough!
Hope everyone survived the big day!

Passed on the REJECT Jesus Black Sabbath.
Celebrated the Resurrection instead this morning.
He's Alive no matter what the cultists think.
Peace Out,

huh? What did I miss? The memorial? Haven't been in a KH for 25 years. This is what I missed: "Penne with Chorizo, Tomato and Cream, Crusty Portuguese Bread, Tiramisu" - oh Princess, wish I lived closer to you and was one of your friends. I worked all day, spent some time on JWD until it went bye-bye, then went to bed. My big deal today was washing my car (about 210 calories according to the web sites I checked) now will have the thrill of visiting a local thrift store.

I've never been a JW, but I went as a nice gesture b/c our family member invited me. I tell ya, it was SO STRANGE to see that plate & goblet just pass on down the line, person after person....and no one partaking.
Another thing that struck me...was now DRY & EMOTIONALLY DEAD the service was. I'm used to a church with spirit....lively music and everyone worshipping the Lord. I'm sorry....but this service was dry as stale toast.
Well, at least that cured my curiousity!

Yes, had a wonderful celebration at home instead of the KH, in are ceremony we didn't have unleavened bread so we used Twinkies sliced into quarters and instead of red wine
we used grape Koolaid and passed that around at the dinner table. In my talk I gave thanks to Jesus for creating all the the self-righteous sanctimonious redeemable sinners in the world,
and if he would please come back now because there might be too many of them .
After dinner we resided into the living room and gathered around the television to watch Monty Pythons " Life of Brian " it was a very good evening indeed .
