Wow!!
This is the second cong I've heard of which HASN'T proposed sending a lump sum out of their bank account!!
Is rebellion in the air by some Elders? We can hope!

I think many elders probably know that if they fall for this scam, then when a major repair cost is needed at the KH the Watchtower will act like a slum lord and not want to pay for it. At that point the extra cost will be back onto the congregation. Many congregations have probably already hid money away from their "Mother". LOL

$500.00 per month "and we should be happy at that amount since we were sending in $800.00 per month before this new loving arrangement kicked in" as it was mentioned from the platform. Also, ten thousand was taken out of the account and a loan of fifteen thousand. A total of twenty-five thousand which was to be donated to a new hall build which that hall announced they didn't need so the congregation doesn't know where it ended up an no one seems to ask or is too afraid to ask where their money went

I know that when the CO makes his rounds he will be an enforcer and make sure that the elders do in fact fork over the money over and above the $5000

The Searcher, if you have ever heard the phrase "getting blood from a turnip," that phrase applies here. While there are a few rich congregations, most are pretty poor.
It would be interesting to find out how the results align with what was expected by HQ. I am sure getting that last rusty nickel will be the focus of the CO visits. Is all I can say is: good luck with that. You couldn't pay me enough to take that job.
