  it has been a few months since i hear this from an elder.

  he said that the c/o told them this new requirement.. "men that wanna be an elder or ministerial servant has to go out to field service on sundays.

  if there is an elder or ministerial servant that is not going out to field service on sunday can lose the priviledge".

  Thanks everyone for your comments.

  So, I'm guessing there is nothing written from Jehovah (aka Governing body) on the subject.

  They are just a bunch of modern times "Pharisees".

  Organized book doesn't say anything of this. All it says is that the publisher has to be regular in service.

  Is this a new "oral" requirement? Or is it in a secret manual?

  Elders or anyone that has any knowledge about this please let me know!!!

  Thanks!

  that's the word according to my mil.

  mrs hoser is starting a new career and the college and work training will take her four years to complete.

  her mom is giving her a hard time telling her that the system will be over before she graduates.

  Is Anthony Morris III gay?

  by Calebs Airplane in

  1. jw

  why else would he constantly bring up "gay-inspired" clothing when speaking to such large audiences?.

  nothing wrong with being gay.

  but he should just come out of the closet already and stop all this stupidity... just saying.. .

  the week of september 15, 2014 was the congregations cos visit.

  the midweek meeting was on tuesday, a very general bland talk was given by the co. in the past we would have had the elders & servants meeting on thursday night, and the other congregation meeting on friday.

  as you know the friday meeting is no more.

  Hold on, the branch office is involved in all of this prior to the CO visiting the Congregation. At least that is what I was told by an elder in my congregation. You see, accordint to him, the elders have to meet 1 month prior to the visit to see who would qualify to be an elder or a MS. They send a form to the branch office making a recommendation of a brother. The branch office looks at the records of that brother. If the branch office is satisfied, it sends the CO the approval. Now when the CO comes to the congregation, he has to see and work with the brother. Now the CO Can make the appointment or not based on his own observations of the brother.

  That's the proccess according to this elder.

  i'm curious, why and how did you choose your username?.

  does it hold any special significance for you, is there a share-able back story?.

  for me sparrowdown is a playful reference to matt 10:29 and the title of the movie black hawk down.. matt 10:29 was my go-to scrip to "prove" that god cares about us as individuals.
