Hello Everyone,
Do you remember that my Dad passed away last year and I was going back to the Witnesses after 26 years?
I got reinstated after going there for 9 months. In the 5 months since then I felt the men in the congregation didn't want me there. Anyway they got their spies to search my name on the internet and found out that in the past I had been involved in psychic groups etc and they made a meal of it, I was sent a text and asked to attend the Kingdom Hall on a Monday evening not saying why. When I went their I was greeted by them holding their tablets and showing me various website photos they had found of me playing music at folk festivals and dancing. One of the elders was very aggressive and asked me if I was having sexual relations with the woman I was staying with, I was questioned by him aggressively for 2 hours, but I stood up to him.
After that I attended no more meetings, my friend said she could see I was traumatised. They called me to a judicial committee tonight. I did not attend but wrote a letter. They about 40 minutes ago they knocked on the door (the window cleaner is a JW and told them where I lived as you wouldn't find this cottage unless you knew where to go) and announced that they were disfellowshipping me. In one way I feel relieved. the JWs are much worse than they used to be they watch your EVERY move and I just couldn't take it.
Another woman in the congregation told me that the elders are awful to single women and often drag them in the back room to have a go about something or other. She said there are big problems in that congregation and the elder who interrogated me is sex mad as he always turns around any comment he makes to David and Bathsheba lol!. Anyway some of you warned me it wouldn't be a good idea and you were right. I promised my Dad I would return before he died and I did just that, but what was going to happen after reinstatement I did not know. I only hope he can see the truth of it all now and one day I will see him again.
