Tell them you can only do the shepherding call between 9am-5pm Monday thru Friday. If they can't count the time (late evenings, Saturday or Sunday) they will not typically come (unless they are retired). Also, mention to them that you are having financial problems and may need to borrow money. Guaranteed...you will never hear back! lol

Our Kingdom Hall was sold to a church several years ago. One day dedicated to Jehovah, the next day turned over to Christendom.
So I can't do any work on a church or enter one for a wedding or funeral but WT can sell one to be used as a church? This is the epitome of hypocrisy! It sickens me.

"No wonder this year's convention has that awful Bunker video! Yeap the round up is about to begin and the WT knows it!"
Spot on rebelfighter! The GB knows that the jig is up. The ARC will be coming to bite them in the a**, along with all the law suits. The bunker video's are just a tool to prepare the oblivious rank and file for the publicity that the cult will receive, once this all comes to a head. WT will then use the "persecution card". They have been lining this up for years.

why isn't the boston globe doing a better job covering this group?.
after all, the movie spotlight won an oscar about this paper and their groundbreaking journalism into the catholic church covering child abuse.
