Hi, i really need some advice here. I was selected to play in a sports team representing the country i live in. It's no big deal as it wont create any kind of major publicity. I heard some rumblings from an elder that you could be df'd on the grounds of nationalism! Is that a possibility? Thanks in advance.
Can i be df'd for this?

What about Venus and Serena Williams? They play for their country and both claim to be active witnesses. If anyone tries to target you, you could point to them as an example.

I doubt it. Our congregation had a young man who once represented England School boys in football.
I also saw a post recently with the G.B passports. Within the passports were words pledging alligence to America...they signed them Hypercrites....
MORE IMPORTANTLEY good luck with your sport...

The Williams sisters have only claimed to be unbaptized publishers and that was some time ago. Can't df unbaptized publishers since 1988.

A lesson every JW should learn:
Any JW can be disfellowshipped for anything that 3 elders agree on.
