  A brother in a distant congregation tells us that in his congregation it was announced the Society has appointed a brother as some sort of overseer of public talks. Not clear if it was all talks or just the public talk. He understood it to mean all public talks in the circuit. Kind of like an “Inspector General” position. Obviously this is a new position because an extensive letter was read from the Society appointing this brother in charge.

  I would appreciate if anybody has heard anything about this and can expand on what little information we have.

  I thought there was always someone in charge of having the "scroll" with which brother had what talk #'s(outlines for public talks) assigned.......... so he could plan the next 5 months worth of sunday talks?

  TThat would be the "Public Talk Coordinator". It's been that way for years. Nothing new to see here keep moving.

  You missed the point. We just talked to the brother to verify. This elder's duties are to monitor all talks including the Ministry School, to make sure that the material was being followed exactly as it was assigned. It caused quite a buzz in the congregation. This had nothing to do with the Public Talk Coordinator.

  I heard a similar thing. This brother would assist the School Overseer. He would also counsel the elders and MS when they give talks.
