    The November 15 W.T. (Study edition) features these two articles:

    Help Those Who Stray from the Flock

    Help Them Return Without Delay

    I didn't have access to the material, but I heard rumors that the articles enforce new procedures for inactive ones, i.e. that efforts are to be made to help them return and, if they don't respond, then they'll undergo some kind (what kind?) of disciplinary action.

    Anyone has access to the articles and/or can post them for details regarding this brand new "loving arrangement"?

    I would be interested to know about this since I have been inactive for years.

    Just checked hubby's meeting bag, and he hasn't gotten the Nov. issue yet. I will also be very interested to see what it says.

    They just can't leave us alone, can they...

    Like I would return. I say throw me out, I was stupid for joining a club that would have me as a member

    Marking for reference. I too would be very interested to know exactly what it says, preferably well in advance of my inactive JW being assaulted and beaten over the head with it.

    No rest for the weary :-(

    To me it's actually a relief. I want to disassociate myself but I keep a low profile for my wife and her family. If they got active and df'd me I would be OK with it

    Maybe the society is learning a lesson from these forums: The most effective apostates are the inactive ones who still have contact with family and friends. Got to protect the flock.

    If the org attempt to effectively "disassociate" those who no longer attend - it would have a huge impact on alot of active members.

    Would they be required to "shun" those who no longer attend meetings????

    Can you feel the agape love????

    Will be interesting to see what happens with this.
