  New letter about Circuit Conventions accounting procedures

  by Hecce in

  1. watchtower

  i hope that one of the friends will post the letter soon.

  i heard that on 3/27/2017 a letter with new instructions about the accounts at the circuit conventions was released.

  the letter seems to adopt many of the corrections that had been suggested here at the forum, among other things during the accounts report they will be no mention of the per capita and the amount due is going to be released only to the elders.

  I will have to re-read the letter, but this looks like a branch specific letter that has the aim of clarifying their policy.

  For example, at Circuit Assemblies, the Per Capita rate is never supposed to be announced. The fact that this letter dated 03/27/2017 mentions to not do that, in bold, may mean that some had actually announced it! Ha!

  Also, the inclusion of initials "SDF:SDD" before the date, indicate that this was drafted at the branch level. I don't know the boys down in Texcoco well enough to tell you who that is, but those are the initials of the Bethelite who drafted the letter and his assistant who typed it.

  Very interesting stuff. It only further confirms how Assemblies are a cash making scheme for the Org.

  Si sobran fondos y la cuenta del circuito sobrepasa los fondos que excedan el objetivo de saldo, se donará a la obra mundial el sobrante

  All excess funds go to the "world wide work".

  A nurse describes a noblood death

  by OrphanCrow in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  the jehovah's witness protection program.

  my first clue that 'something was up' lay in the fact that it was 7 am in the intensive care unit and getting to my patient was a challenge for all of his visitors in his room.my second clue that 'something was up' lay in the fact that my patient was african-american and all of his visitors were white.now before we get all racially sensitive, i am very aware that many families are blended in many ways and many of us are close friends with people of all races.

  however, in the hospital where i work, it is an uncommon sight to see a room full of white people at the bedside of a black man at seven in the morning.

  I am in tears. THIS is why I leak HLC documents. I don't know why he ultimately chose not to accept blood, but I want to make damn sure that people make Informed choices. With ALL the facts. NO secret documents, no pushy committees.

  Kingdom Servie Yearly Notice to Register with Selective Service

  by VM44 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the june, 2006 issue of "our kingdom service" is available for download at reexamine.org.. this issue contains the yearly reminder for young men to register with the selective service.. here is the exact announcement.. from: our kingdom ministry, june 2006, page 3. u.s. selective service regulations require that all men register at the post office within 30 days after reaching 18 years of age.

  a male noncitizen under the age of 26 who takes up residency in the united states must also register with selective service within 30 days of becoming a resident.

  all of those required to do so should comply with this law, viewing it as a christian's obligation to the superior authorities.
