  Social distancing and the Memorial

  by Kingdavid41 in

  1. social
  2. current

  with the coronavirus now categorized as a global pandemic and many large gatherings are now social distancing for safety concerns of contacting and spreading the virus.. will the memorial of christ death take place on april 7 2020 worldwide where thousands will gaether in large crowds to commemorate the death of jesus as commanded in the bible.

  jesus gave the command to keep doing this in remembrance of him or will sound, reasonableness and good judgment for safety overrule on that special night.

  my guess is that it will not be canceled regardless of the frightening and very real pandemic the virus has caused around the world!.

  I guess "social distancing" will be on a par with self-disfellowshiping..

  Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

  latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

  the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

  Europe traveling to US suspended. I dont get why UK is exempt.

  UK isn't part of the EU's Schengen agreement. Schengen countries have open borders. UK doesn't.

  No. I stopped believing it was the truth. Then I started to think of all the things that I could be doing if I wasn't a witness.

  Greta Thunberg, Worse than Plague

  so greta thunberg thinks the world pollutes too much.

  specifically, the parts of the world that pollute the least and have the cleanest industries.

  she doesn't seem to care about india or china who are the biggest polluters by far.. "how dare they".

  My BIL whose a professor specialising in the disposal of nuclear waste, informed me that last Christmas Day, just as all the ovens went on to cook our turkeys, the year's highest demand on our energy supplies of electricity and gas, our wind generated electricity supplied just 0.4% of the UK's demand.

  Name one POSITIVE thing you took from your experience as a Witness

  i was thinking about this at work the other day, and realized the one positive thing i can truly credit the jws with: .

  i have no fear of public speaking.

  i was a shy kid, fat, clumsy, with crooked glasses and worse teeth, who wore hand-me-downs in one of the wealthiest counties in all of america, who sat still while classmates got up to salute the flag or recite the pledge of allegiance.

  Just the public speaking. I find it easier than one to one conversations! In fact I get off on it and feed on my audiences reaction. As for Best Man speeches at weddings, well, the last one I did for my kid brother even had the hotel staff rolling in the aisles. Just a born show-off I guess.

  one of my favorite actors is robert de niro.

  some of his later movies were so so but overall i think he was outstanding.

  meryl streep, i just never thought she was anything exciting yet people say she’s the best actress of all time.

  Mark Rylance. He was superb in Wolf Hall. His easy-going way with King Henry was particularly convincing.

  Unwritten, congregational 'rules'

  what were some of yours?

  the big one in our hall was no frontal hugs!

  these were generally thought of as inappropriate, only side hugs should be given between sisters and brothers.

  No short skirts! The skirt test meant a lady had to be able to kneel and the skirt be long enough to also cover her feet.
