    This happened many, many moons ago, in the Bronx, NY.

    There was a kingdom hall that was being used as a brothel, apparently the pioneer sisters were delivering more than just mags, and the elders were their pimps.

    This did get some newspress, but like I said, it was a long time ago. It was so bad that their was no growth in that area and the JW's were a joke among the community. The Society bulldozed the Kingdom Hall, after DFing just about everyone.

    I guess we need to get RR to give us the name of the newspapers it appeared in and an approximate time period. The articles might still be archived by the newspapers in question. Otherwise it is just gossip.

    Blondie: Narrow your search to a New York town, the name of which is something like, or sounds like, "Arise." Does that help?

    Sounds too far-fetched for me...

    I don't know about that but I do know that at least one pioneer sister supported herself this way and put in extra

    hours to compensate for it. This was discussed in Entrance ( New boy) school in Bethel years back.
