Hmmm.... an entire convention on Loyalty. Looks like a lot of people are being dis loyal. People are leaving and are angry. Just the title of the assembly tells me they are very worried. Remember what the March Broadcast says about removing the rafter from YOUR eye, not the other way around. The organization has done NOTHING, it's always YOUR fault . Remember that. lol
Let me guess, they will have a talk about your loyalty and giving your "first fruits". Which translates, "give us your money."

by stephanie61092 inthis is a legitimate question.
did any of us ever find real joy in being at the meetings?
did any of us ever finish a meeting and think "i feel so enriched"?

Great decision Pleaseresearch.
An Elder (COBE) tried several times to "meet" with us. I guarantee you, he had a bundle of rope in his rolley bag with the noose already set to go. No way, no how!

They have no shame.
Sorry you are getting treated like this.
I wouldn't give them a dime. If they treat you like this they don't deserve your respect. Like someone just said, let their JW family help them out.

"However, for those of us with estranged parents, the grieving is different. We grieve for the parents we should have had and didn't. Be prepared to miss the father you didn't have."
Great way to put it OrphanCrow. So true!

Lostwun...Blessings all around. ha
My spouse and I watched them out of our window. As we watched them unload the car, we discussed how we DO NOT miss the "tasks" this organization puts on its members. You know...the burdens the branch (Jehovah) does not want to put on the Brothers and Sisters. What a joke!

1 ring, 2 seconds at the door (that's all we get?) and when we checked later....NO TRACT WITH AN INVITE LEFT IN THE DOOR? What the hell. They are doing all of this invite work but leaving no invite in the doors? How is anyone going to find the date, time and location to the Memorial? I'm so hurt.... NOT! (Sarcasm alert!)
