    Letter dated 1/1/2018. I know they are trying to simplify but it all is such a confusing mess.... Forms, Dates, Calculators, Committees, Logins, Publisher Record Cards.....Jesus would barf

    TO ALL BODIES OF ELDERS Re: Announcements and Reminders Dear Brothers: In an effort to reduce the number of letters sent to all bodies of elders and congregations, most announcements from the branch office will now be conveyed to congregations by means of the Announcements and Reminders (S-147) form. The first part of the form will contain information for the elders only. If there are announcements for the congregation, these will appear on a separate page of the form. Instructions on the form will indicate which announcements are to be read to the congregation and/or posted on the information board when applicable. The Announcements and Reminders form will be released in the “Forms” section of the “Documents” tab on jw.org no more than once a month. When there are no announcements or reminders for a particular month, this will be noted on the jw.org screen. Information containing organizational policy will continue to be released by means of dated letters for ease of reference in Index to Letters for Bodies of Elders (S-22). Thank you for your diligence and faithfulness in caring for the needs of the congregation. (Heb. 13:7) We send our warm Christian love. Your brothers, Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witness

    And this good news of the Announcements and Reminders will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the congregations and then the end will come ... soon, after an unknown number of overlapping generations. - Anthony 24:14

    sounds to me like a effort to reduce the paper trail and thereby the evidence trail that they DID say this or that.

    it is the same number of announcements and information. It is just reducing the number fo times that it gets transmitted to each congregation.
