A ("wordly") friend which I talked to in the morning also gave me the counsel to build up other friendships. So this is what I really will try to do.

the december issue of "kingdom ministry" for australia carries this announcement:.
"as a reminder to the brothers handling the congregation accounts, donations placed in the boxes for the worldwide work are to be remitted monthly and should not be used for payment on a kingdom hall property loan or for any other congregation expense.".
