    Who knows why they announced it. I doubt for my mom anymore than me. My mom is inactive herself.

    It may have been on my siblings behalf since they are the active ones.

    Either way it makes no difference. If they were just trying to be kind and caring for my own well being, fine. I could appreciate that. I do appreciate the older lady visiting me as well. Though I am sure she was counting time. LOL She is a sweet lady.

    But I am sure they were just hoping to encourage me to get back to the meetings. That had to be their motive for announcing it.

    After all, we all know salvation can only be found at the kingdom hall.

    Sometime this week I will corner my mom and ask her exactly what she told my brother. S ee post: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/7/71195/1.ashx

    Strange. I didn't hear of any announcements a coupla years ago when I was really ill.

    They show love when it suits them.

    Visiting the sick and infirm or those incarcerated is a typical trick of all the christian sects that are recruiting. It's at a time when one is most likely succepable and needing comfort and companionship. The shitty theology is hidden under a layer of sweet icing. Of course you already know this, but the tactics have worked in the past, why should they change?

    they most likely made the announcement out of respect for your mom, if she is a practicing dub

    Are you kidding? Do you have any idea how valuable these visits can become when filling out a service report?

    you were smart to say you were getting them, that way you don't turn into a return visit for her...

    It is strange that they announced about you. After being gone 5 yrs there are probably those in the hall that said "who is that?"

    What's important is...

    Where did they announce it first...the Hall or JWD?

    Who's offered more encouragement....the Hall or JWD?

    Badger, of the "Sandy's best interest" class.

    Hmmm..... I'd have to say the KH. LOL, J/K

    JWD has offered more support no question about it.
