Hoser is right all of the literature for Canada U.S and I believe some parts of Europe are printed in Canada.
Its a bit of a mystery why they need to build more literature facilities if the Canadian bethel prints all that and the European bethels are being downsized and amalgamated etc.
Also the amount of printing is going down and is cheaper.
Less magazines - with less pages, softcover books.
Encouraging people to print their own or to read from their iPads and tablets etc.
I can see in the near future the printing going rapidly down to the basics - the very bare minimum until it stops.
So why build more facilities and educational centres. If all of the buildings have been doing the job okay until now whats the point ?
Why build new halls and keep on asking for money why not sell the existing hall and use that money to build a new one or modify the existing hall ?
Why empty out all of the congregation funds and then still ask for more ?
Lets face it - if the end is so close why can't they just use the halls and buildings they have already and put all the extra money into the preaching work. They obviously do not think it will end soon.
I know about the re selling and flipping of properties and the court cases but come on where does all the money go ?
Why can't they be honest and just show the rank and file all of their bank info - after all the rank and file give their contributions and have no idea where it goes ?
If it is for court cases then change the stupid 2 witness rule and put an end to all of this.
Otherwise there are some rich people behind the scenes making a pretty penny from the gullible in the congregations - its disgusting.
