  Some thoughts on the new midweek meeting

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  the new midweek meeting has been running for a month now.

  here are my thoughts on how it is going so far:.

  1) elders are looking frazzled from being on virtually every meeting and having to prepare unfamiliar formats for items.

  My take

  1. The clam is more boring (than the TMS (didn't think that was possible)

  2. Those 3 presentations every week are gonna get real old real fast

  3. Having the book study at the end makes the meeting really drag on for me.

  it seems that some co need much more $$ and in some countries they started to promote multilevel sales among their contact network.

  have you been involved in any offer of such nature?

  I would love some evidence of COs supporting MLMs. I have seen none in my area.

  this was the line my nephew gave me regarding why jws don't give alms.

  i had several rebuttals to give him, but didn't.

  i was hoping for some comments from this board.

  The Govs list is great except for 6&7. Six is an ASSHOLE move and seven is presumptuous. I would add that whenever meeting with the elders start crying and say "I can't believe I brought so much reproach on Jehovahs name".

  GTTM, Sorry you are having a hard time. The Borg puts those of us that no longer believe but who's family still does in an awful situation. There are no "good" options.

  Your Jehovah’s Witness Is Showing

  since i just signed up and posted a few times without doing this yet, here is my story..

  i think that i became a jehovahs witness because of my immaturity.

  i had some quirky personality traits, and i joined finding that i fit in because, as i said to myself: these people get me.

  Sounds like there doing the right thing. I'm sure they knew that they had to, but regardless it's hard to complain about them funding the park with over 5 million.
