    I well remember practically every circuit assembly that I ever saw the accounts for reported (falsely) a deficit

    I have NEVER been to any assembly where they declared a surplus (in the black)

    It has always been a control thing to try and scrape up a few more "donations" from those not aware of the manipulation

    I think they should have one labeled " to help us pay for our lawsuits."

    *** km 12/03 p. 7 Announcements ***As a reminder to the brothers handling the congregation accounts, donations placed in the boxes for the Worldwide Work and for the Kingdom Hall Fund are to be remitted monthly and should not be used for payment on a Kingdom Hall property loan or for any other congregation expense.

    There is no literature contribution box. There are three though - www, local, and kingdom hall construction. Literature would fall under www.

    Some congregations put a box on the counter by the mags and literature....unofficial intimidation.

    notice that some congregations were using the monies for the worldwide work to pay congregation bills...heavens that the lights go out then send the money to NY.

    For awhile the WTS had contribution boxes provided at the book studies in the home...what a joke...after 4 months and not a penny, the BOE abandoned that directive (it might have been the CO's directive). The box had three slots....

    There are still contribution boxes at our group meetings for field service (former book study groups). It doesn't have three slots, but isn't it the same thing?

    Sounds like the elders there are more obedient. So do they get much money? My husband did the accounts so he knew they got nada.
