Confirmed: CO Discourages Zoom

by XBEHERE in

i can confirm that the co during one of his service talks stated that zoom is a provision for elderly, infirmed, as well as people who might need it on occasion due to health reasons, otherwise you are expected to be in person at meetings and in the ministry.

this had to come down from the top.

maybe they do not want to put it in a gb update or broadcast since that would be too public i suppose.

i'm being facetious (sorta), can they suggest you make a contribution before loggin. Sounds like something they would do.

Thanks,

I doubt if anyone remembers me from years ago. I did not post that much, however I have been lurking well before my membership date. It took me some years, and now can say I am out, and proudly called an apostate. I owe a lot to this site.

by Ghiagirl in

well it finally happened!

You are preaching to the choir smiddy, calling my brother a twit is being kind. This guy owes so many people in his congregation money, and he no intention to pay them back. He has been an elder over 30 years (do they still have the same elder arrangement when I left left 20 years ago???) and is one of the most dishonest persons I ever met.

Similar thing happened to me recently. My brother who wrote me off years go because i am df'ed recently asked me for a loan, several thousand dollars, stating financial troubles. I told him I would not want to endanger his good relationship with the congregation and Joe Hoover by taking money from eventual bird food. I reminded him Joe can be an angry God.

Haven't posted in a while. Love Junior's , I live up the block from there. Went to Tavern on the Green about ten years ago, a bit over price and over rated if you ask me. Also they closed about 2 years ago.

I love the Oyster Bar, I'm a regular at the saloon there, I try to catch a quick drink or two be for I catch he train home from work. However, their are a ton of new restaurants in my area in Brooklyn (Clinton Hill/ Fort Green). I love Maggie Brown's, Luz and Chez Lola, good food and reasonable prices.

been sick all week and for the first time i had jw's visit me since i left (actually the second time, but the first time it was just two people who asked "are you turkish" and left when i said no lol.

very strange).

anyway, since i had no voice and little strength i just let them go through their presentation with a smile, took the mags, and that was it.
