I served between Brooklyn/Wallkill between 2005 - 2012 (including one and two week temping). It would be great to see if I know/knew anyone here!
If privacy is your thing, I have no problems exchanging ANY info, except my name, in PM.
Anyone one recently served in Bethel?

you may be supprised.... i found a couple here i knew when i was in brooklyn longer ago than that! its nice to see and know others who found the same things you have, and bethel is a really good place to wake up. You see up close and personal the dirty side of the org and the all too human people who run it, sans holy spirit.

Very true!
One department I worked in dealt with congregations directly. Oversight's decisions had mostly come down to "What's more cost efficient?" So changes/adjustments would be made. Then congregations would send letters of appreciation and how they see Jehovah's spirit at work. LOL.
At the time though, I viewed those decisions as Jehovah's spirit working subtley, and becoming a blessing to the friends. But even before I left, I had to face the fact, Jehovah's goal shouldn't be to save money. How cost and energy efficient was it to part the Red Sea? LOL.
