The one oclock meeting

    I go to a hall (very rarely) with a single cong of about 60 people in a small city of maybe 10000. Our board of elders is a bunch of childless weirdos or at least the ones that make an effort.

    They recently changed the sunday meeting time from 10/12 to 1/ 3. A number of us are pissed off. Its makes to hard to drive to the city or go to a football game.

    I just know the gestopo elders behind the change. If your life isnt as miserable or pointless as theirs, they arent doing their job. Its kind of a collective punishment for not being as hardcore as them. It bad enough they take saturday away, now they want your entire sunday.

    Be true to your screen name, Steel. Or is that name just to compensate for a lack thereof?

    Change the channel.

    If you cannot just "NOT GO", then go to a neighboring Cong.

    If you can't even do that, then JUST GO and STFU about it or everyone will think you're just a whiner. Or the Eldubs might even accuse you of murmuring.

    I admit that it is probably to just "fade away" in a small town Cong.

    Good luck . . . . Doc

    The greatest revenge is living a happy & successful life!

    Yea screw those meetings and serve us. Weekends are better spent making breakfast, doing some shopping, the occasional stroll in a given direction to see something fun and pretty much anything non JW related. It's great not having to dread the weekends anymore.

    We had 3 congregations in a single call and rotated Sunday times every year. I hated the afternoon time slots. It screws up your entire Sunday for doing much of anything else.

    If attendance drops they will realize it was a mistake and move it back, so just don't go.
