I agree with Committee Chairman. People just don't have the money anymore. Some of the ones that do are getting fed up with all the money grabbing and decide to stop donating. Of course, there is a Sucker born every minute, these are the ones that will continue to support this organization. Maybe these "glorious men" should take their own advise. When my family was struggling in a bad economy we were told to trust and rely upon Jehovah. Hey Governing Body..."trust in Jehovah". Easier said than done!

Thank you Pixel.
Isrealite men gave gifts, in proportion to the blessing the Jehovah had given him.
Translation: "The more money you give the bigger the blessing Jehovah will give you?" Unbelieveable!
I feel sorry for all the hardworking Brothers and Sisters, that really believe these guys are "the ones", who are barely making ends meet that are turning their last dollar over to these greedy men. I pray everyday that Karma (what goes around comes around) kicks these guys butts.

It was read this week. We are in the US branch. It was titled donations in support of Kingdom interests worldwide. I hope someone has a copy to share with the rest of us.
Bigmac - Thank you for the welcome! Been lurking here for a few years. Still have to keep our personal details under wraps for now!

I just want the Governing Body to know how "happified" I am today. Keep sending those Branch letters to the congregation(s) about sending your donations in. Not only did you humiliate the Rank and File with your Tony Morris tight pants talk but now you are begging the same people you humiliated for money. You just can't make this stuff up. Are these guys stupid or clueless? Maybe both? These guys just don't get it.
They required people to travel farther for International Conventions this year. Not all of us have someone to pay all our bills...i.e. mortgage, health insurance, car payments, etc. They even have their meals prepared, cleaned up and the laundry done. Are they getting mani/pedis too? I have a job and I don't have a nice pair of cufflinks or a pinky ring. Keep it coming Governing Body...it's waking ALOT of people up (it woke me up)! How long do you think it will take for them to put a donate button on JW.org? I'm betting within the next 6 months to a year.
All of you lurkers...WAKE UP! Ask yourself...why is a one day assembly, on a paid off assembly hall, costing us thousands of dollars per day. Is tolit paper going up in price?
I once read, "the evil prosper, and the innocent pay the bills for them".

An Elder once corrected me for my concluding prayer. I never prayed the same after that (made me self conscious).

Don't waste your time. They are all brainwashed drones. Most Elders are Legends in their own minds. They will just peg you as a troublemaker and discard you.

One assembly we attended the speaker suggested that the brothers and sisters who were unemployed should pioneer. One brother took their suggestion and pioneered. Then his wife complained to the elders that her husband was not taking care of the family. The elders told the brother to get a job. You're damned if you do and damned if you don't. You can NEVER do enough or do the right thing in this Organization. Tell the elders you need some financial help and they will run so fast it will make your head spin.

Seems like a nice lady. Too bad she got duped 2 times (once by her husband) and then by the JW's.

Did you AWAKEN from the JWs by yourself?
by cultBgone ini was thinking about how so many posters here on jwn are frustrated and frantic to help their loved ones get away from the brainwashing of jws, and how much advice is given about how to help family members and loved ones.
i considered my own leaving and that it was internal turmoil based on the teachings getting weirder and child abuse issues, to name just a few, and it made me wonder:.
did you self-awaken or were you assisted by the gentle proddings of a friend or family member?

We had years of the feeling that "something just isn't right." Watching all of the abuse, hypocrisy/contradictions, lack of love/caring (John 13:34: By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves) and watching the spiritual competition that goes on at the KH. We had a false sense of security..."our Brothers/sisters will help us when we need them." Then one day we needed them...they were not there. That was it for us. We got sick of hearing the excuse..."the organization if full of imperfect people." Really?
