    Is this just UK only? 15 minutes is a big change for a non-headquarters branch to make.

    Sorry double post for some reason.

    If it is UK only, I wonder if it is related to the charity investigation.

    That's another thread I missed. Thanks George.

    We we will just have to wait and see what it is but I don't think it will be anything outstanding.

    If they promise that money will be of no value and hound for donations, then get ready--to spend that money that will soon be thrown on the streets on silver. Do not donate anything to the washtowel. You are better off to buy silver, and if it's only small amounts, dimes and quarters are relatively easy to find and afford. You keep the silver.

    That way, when the time comes and hyperinflation destroys the dollar, you will at least have something to tide you until something else comes. Instead of having nothing, you will have a few days or weeks before having to barter or find work that pays in silver or gold.

    Is there anything ever posted here that doesn't somehow tie into your crazy dollar valuation obsession?

    I've heard talk for the last couple of years that new congregations aren't being registered as charities. Maybe all are going to de-register because I think that the money grab probably violates the constitutions of the congregations. This only applies to congs in England (& Wales?) - any in scotland who can say whether they have the change to the meeting as well? If it is this, they probably have to act fast to avoid legal problems. It seems strange to me that they would alter what is supposed to be a special month of service meetings unless they had to. Especially as we're already losing one week due to the conventions.

    Keep us informed please, those of you who still have the stomach to attend. Thanks.

    I suspect Saltheart might be right - only money concerns would seem to foist a change this big on the sacred service meeting.

    If it's UK only - especially England and Wales - then that would fit. We will see ...

    15 minutes on financial stuff seems a bit much if it really was to be that. A JW.org worshipping talk seems much more likely.

    If it was a change in the charities arrangement, I think there would be different instructions for Scotland, as things are a bit different up here.

    If it's a JW.org talk, it could also be incorporating instructions for the cart witnessing.
