Fair enough simon, as headquarters goes so does the rest of the org.... But for something that significant to go down with not a wiff or slightest hint picked up...? No way. That would have made major news

World Wide Construction comes to a Shuddering Halt - Jehovah's Blessing has Evidently been Suspended!
by Slidin Fast inthe chelmsford project in the uk has already come to a halt and every one has been sent home.
the bethel family in london is to be cut by several hundred.
my impression is that most ambitious youngster in the org dream of being involved with the building program.

Sorry i cant support that statment. Hes the head of the original child molestation protection organization. I dont hate the catholic faith anymore than other faiths but that just means i dont hold any of them in particularly high regard -

Calm Down Everybody, We Will Know Soon Enough
by OnTheWayOut inseriously, they will change the midweek meeting ever so slightly.
it is just repackaging of the same old stuff.seriously, we don't know if construction is halted for days, weeks, months, forever, or what.. we don't know if new kingdom halls will still go up, old kingdom halls will be closed and sold.
they have laid off bethelites before and they will lay them off some more.

@wonderofyou- the gb are not elected. You are thinking of the wt corporate officers which is a completely different thing -

Totally agree with the original premise here. There will be no mass exodus. The cult will continue as normally scheduled.... But damn its facinating to see how fast they are sliding! -

What makes WT think they can reassign Bethel volunteers to be Regular Pioneers.
by Zoos inwhen the gb cuts loose 1600 volunteers, what makes them think they can continue telling them how they will spend their time?
i've read on many of these threads that the 1600 will be reassigned.
what, are they still under some sort of contract?.

Indeed it is. One of the many reasons i left. I saw how disloyal and pointless it was even back then. Going to bethel has laid the foundation of many an apostate -

"I thought Special Pioneers got some money monthly from Bethel. Is that incorrect?
I'd guess that being reassigned as just a Pioneer you wouldn't get money from Bethel."
bingo :) correct on both counts

Standard cult protocol. Even when i left bethel 25 years ago it was 'assumed' for you that you would piosneer. They are kicking them out by "reassigning" them to full time field service but of course its optional. The real message is "you dont have to pioneer but you have to get the hell outta here" -
