From the latest yearbook, Germany showed a decline in average publishers, as did Poland and Japan...all countries with over 100K publishers.
Good news to make you happy!
I wonder how this is reflected on a more worldwide scale. You know how the yearbook has its little bit of info on each country? It would be interesting to see what happened in the rest of the world when they lost all those congs and halls in Germany. Wonder what happened to the people in those halls? What did they DO with all the halls that they don't have anymore?

* Old ones died, no new youngs coming up. Also, quite some learned TTATT and buzzed the fxxx off.
* Well they did not donate them to the Salvation Army. Hint: maybe compare to new McDonalds restaurants opened in Germany 2011-2014 :)
Yeaaaaaay!
Some promising signs....2011 worldwide memorial attendance was greater than 2013 worldwide memorial attendance (but, of course, increased number of partakers).
Oh yes , Jehovah continues to bless his organization with increase.
Consider where growth is and where decreases occur. Free access to information kills the watchtower. Perhaps our goal should be to create access to all countries and languages.
Excellent thought! Education is the cult killer.
