The end came in 1975. We just didn't see it because it was invisible.

Disfellowshipping an 80 year old man, with brain cancer, for swearing!
by James_Slash inthis happened many years ago in my old congregation.. the man, who held the position of a ministerial servant for many years had not long lost his wife in death.. obviously, tensions and the general heartbreak of what happened to him lasted for sometime.
i remember going to see him once and he was extremely depressed.. however, his son had recently moved back in with him and they had started arguing.
his son grassed on him in to the elders that his father had sworn at him in a number of arguments and he was removed as a ms. the rest is history.

I posted this topic about 4 years ago about Sister M who was disfellowshipped back in the early 60's for preferring the King James over the New World Translation. She was well into her 80's and I just loved her. I was devastated when they read the announcement, but went along with it because I thought it was the right thing to do.

Rose Petal - My great great grandfather worked in the coal mines of England, and that's what drove him to take his family to Canada for a better life--it didn't get better very quickly as the family almost died in a shipwreck. I guess the conditions in the coal mines were just terrible in the 19th century. Don't know what part of England it was, but maybe the north.
How big of a Cookson fan are you? I've read over 30 of her books. I need to know how to send pm's

Never have, but I'd sure love to. Most of my ancestors are from England. Also I've a big fan of the author Catherine Cookson and would like to see the area of northern England that was the focus of her books.

I think the only denim that is wrong is blue denim. Denim can be white, black, green, red, yellow and brown. I doubt the elders would recognize denim in any color but blue.

Three times a week - about 1 hour 15 minutes each time - includes 1/2 hour cardio and 3/4 hour lifting weights. Sometimes I substitute an hour of water aerobics.
Been doing it for nine years.
