In July the congregation received $2300.00
Only 40.00 for the worldwide work and ZERO for ramapo project!!!
If this is typical no wonder the org. Is now demanding pledges and taking what's left of the congregation savings account!
Local congregation donation and expense report. Very telling

Looks like the rank and file Jehovah’s Witnesses want to only support the local KH, not the rest of their 💩

If that's a typical month, then for a year it would be:
Ramapo needs: $0
Worldwide needs: $480
Local needs: $27,120
WTS is going to ransack that congregation, lol.

There is an online donation provision for ramapo and www. Some may use it. The local number would be in their collection boxes remember thereis a resolution every year to send a set amount from congregation funds for the mysterious expenses of mother.
Still it is telling.

who knows how they are counting? if you are donation online, are they counting it? You do put in your congregation name. So I guess that would be counted, but what about the world wide work...The org gets their share anyway as a set $ per publisher per month has been set to got the momma bear. if there is anyone on here that knows how that all works, I am interested in learning it. How much could it have cost over the lockdown to run a Hall...the electricity and water would have been very low. Then I am thinking of 3 congregations using the same building...the expense would have been very little split 3 ways. I think they are getting plenty of money, but just want more. They also likely got a windfall in insurances and estates going to them with so many people dieing.

Here in the UK it doesn't matter what we send to HQ, either from the boxes or on line donations from individuals. Once we have amassed 3 months average expenses all surplus is sent to HQ. There is no resolution as a single resolution was taken a couple of years ago that authorises the elders to do this without any further resolutions.

I’ve heard congregation account reports where 0 (that’s zero!) pounds have been donated to the worldwide work. Once upon a time, donations to the worldwide work used to exceed congregation donations, but with each congregation now being required to send substantial donations, and with literature close to non existent, I think many JWs figure that the congregation donation is enough.

nowwhat?
The figures included online donations. Sorry I wasn't more specific.
