    Do people applaud or not applaud at your memorials generally (when the talk is over)?

    So from what I'm seeing from the above numbers quoted, how's that JW Broadcasting and Cart Witnessing working out for them?

    EPIC FAIL. (insert Jesus facepalm here)

    Typically they don't applaud or at least that's my experience.

    Ours was around the same from last year. Around 150 or so. Average attendance is around 110 so really not much of a bump.

    In many areas they have been renting places to hold the memorial where 3-4 congregations share a hall, and getting them all in one place exceeds the building capacity

    Attendance was up but we we early one this year. That makes a huge difference. Late one didn't start till 9.

    Down. I didn't note the exact count, but visibly less than in recent years

    Down by about 20 or so...

    most of the non JWs that come are family members of JW's or former bible studies, there isn't really much new blood.
