Would you sit under torrential rain out in the open during a convention?
7,712 Ukranian JW's did. This post and video compliment their resolve and good example. Looks pretty nutty to me. Amazing what people will do for "The Truth(R)".

The wetter I am, the more dedicated I am to JW.org.
Gayle, the 6% decrease in Witnesses in 2015 over 2014 is probably due to some publishers completely dissolving in the rain during field service.
On a more sober note, I understand there are one or two major breakaway groups of JWs in that country - although I dont have the relevant links on hand. Does anyone else know about this?
2015 Service Report showed a decrease 6% for Ukraine. A sizable drop. Also, a 142 congs. less than 2014. What is going on there?
It is probably due to the annexation of Crimea by Russia. Ukraine has 8,423 less av publishers, and Russia has 7,675 more. Crimea's population (at 2.2 million) was about 5% of Ukraine's population before annexation.
Interestingly, apart from Belarus, countries in that region are all showing flat or negative growth.
Aguas!!! Um, no. Negative.
Silly. The point??? We like sitting in puddles? It's like being in the bathtub? Now no one will notice I peed myself?
Great, now unsuspecting Ukrainians can open doors to sneezing and coughing JWs.
Iconic song reference from Toto. I am deeply disturbed that one of the best songs of the 20th Century is used in any manner to define dubs.
Deeply.
