If the WTS in the U.S. wanted to get into this business it could be very lucrative what with the "millions now living will never die" thing not panning out as prophesied.
I couldn't tell from the site if these Jah-Jireh homes are run by individuals or if the Society has anything to do with them.

Hi Englishman - Thanks for the info. Is this from you computer or directly from the net. My problem at the moment is that I can't find their official web site anywhere ie in the form that you are showing in your reply.
I wondered if they've removed their website, with a little encouragement from the WTBTS.
They certainly make a very healthy profit though!!
I've been interested in them for a while, (with my age and that)
Well Gill, I don't know why you're worrying about being old and infirm. You are still able to escape from police on your bicycle...you can't be in that bad of shape. :)
