I missed my (Cong Bible study, TMS, & SM) last wednesday (1-21-2009). But, was told that a letter was read from WT-Borg. A pioneer told me that the sum asked for was $8.00 - USA.

Sacrificial:- The WTBTS should start an MMORPG. World of WatchtowerCraft, and like other MMORPGs charge a monthly fee.
"I'm a level 42 Ministerial Servant! Check out my +3 Bookbag of placement. It gives me +2 Charisma, and it has a 'Summon: Egg McMuffin' ability!"
Now THAT is funny! Nothing would surprise me anymore, lol. Has the WT asked for 'petrol money saved due to Book Study cancellation' to be donated yet?
With regards to this $5.70...if they're asking for a direct amount from each publisher, is it to keep tabs on who IS donating?

Yes passwordprotected it was read at the meeting Tuseday night. Two $ amounts were asked for one for the CO"s inc and one for the Kingdom Halls. One was for $5.00 something and the other was for $8.00 something. Like Bondie said they do this every year so it is nothing new. But unlike all the other years the letter was really strong I felt. Maybe it was because I have found this place and know more last year I still believed, I know I know how stupid was I. But they went on and on and on in the letter about how hard pressed the friends are getting in this very hard times with the friends getting laid off, 401 plains being lost, yad yad yad and they just fell all over themselfs with how they understand all the sufffering that the friends are going through but for thoese who are not then maybe they could help those who are suffering with paying more this is because Jehovah is with us.
I asked my husband if he heard what I did and he just zones out. He is still a die hard JW and an elder but no he said same letter as last year. I am like no it was not it was very different I felt really begging way more than normal. I was blown away. I looked at my husband and thought when will you wake up and yes that was a good point of how much of this is going to pay for last years lawsuits. Very good point. Thankfully I do the bills in my family and since I have found out about the lawsuits and even before this I found this sight they have been getting $00.00 form me. Same with this new begging for money. I guess they will have to get it from one of the better off friend they refured to. Oh Well. Jehovah always provides right!!!!
