wouldnt it be fun of the congregation told each of its members just to pack one kind of item...to avoid too much duplication. such as one packs tins of baked beans another packs candles, someone else packs light bulbs.. get the idea ?

Trying to get my head around these go bags
by phoenixrising inwhen i was looking at prepping back in the 90s i was told by several elders that we needed to just rely on the org and jehovah and not prep.
i started to put away vacuum sealed bags of rice beans and spices anyway.
now they have this go bag crap.

there is a home here not far from me--on the isle of wight, where some staff were camping out in tents in the garden of the care home. i did say to my wife--weeks ago--she might well have to end up living in for a while.

there are 2 categories of care home resident in the UK:
1: self funding. these pay the care fees themselves, care home owners like these...they can charge whatever they like---typically five to seven hundred pounds a week. the money may come from savings, pensions, help from family, but it often involves the sale of the clients own home. the care home owner hopes they live to a ripe old age, whereas family members cast a nervous eye on the rapidly dwindling inheritance.
2: funded by the local authority. the fees are paid by the local authority: in other words--the taxpayer. the local authority has set amounts they will pay, depending on the level of care required. the fees are nowhere near enough, and contributions are expected from the client, or their family. often, the clients home has to be sold--to repay the local authority. or a charge imposed on the deeds if there is a surviving family member still living there. from my experience care standards are somewhat less, but it would be improper to suggest the taxpayers hope the client doesnt drag it out too long.

Jehovah? Oh dear.
by Giordano insome recent new friends on this forum like friend kosonen are fixated with god's name being jehovah...unfortunately they are wrong:.
a quick bit of history:.
"about the 13th century the term “jehovah” appeared when christian scholars took the consonants of “yahweh” and pronounced it with the vowels of “adonai.” this resulted in the sound “yahowah,” which has a latinized spelling of “jehovah.” the first recorded use of this spelling was made by a spanish dominican monk, raymundus martini, in 1270.. interestingly, this fact is admitted in much jehovah’s witness literature, such as their aid to bible understanding (p. 885).

the hebrew language was written " backwards'--i.e from right to left.
so YHWH should really be HWHY, which looks like HUWEE
Hughie--sounds better to me..sort of American....

my wife is the registered manager of a care home in the UK ( 20 residents ) its a nice easy job--except for the staff, many of which are worse than useless.
yesterday, the night shift senior phone my wife at home to say she wouldnt be able to work last night--because she had a headache! a lot of phone calls to find a stand in --as usual--produced nothing. so my wife did the wakeful night herself--again.
but here comes the farce. the night junior called her--offering the services of her sister as a stand in---untrained--no experience--cash in hand as she was on the 80% furlough.
last weekend--a mighty row blew up in the home--the day senior found out the cleaner / junior night carer was doing hairdressing at home for paying customers--because SHE NEEDED THE MONEY. just how do you educate pork like these about personal safety and the spread of viral diseases ?. need less to say my wife ended up doing the night last weekend too.
as UK care homes are in lock down--no visitors allowed, how do you think the virus gets in ? all care staff must be tested NOW.

Nursing homes are massively profitable private enterprises.
yes--if they are full. it doesnt take long with a few empty rooms for the profits to vanish. local authority funding makes sure of that.

i went to the local b & q yesterday--to the garden center. well organised queuing system in and out. trolley handle sanitiser available. polite staff, good humoured customers, one way foot traffic paths round the store. long may it continue. spent 40 quid on plants.

by Kosonen inbrothers and sisters associated with the watchtower society may 9, 2020. i have tried to inform you of the necessary adjustments you ought to take in order to truly be in the truth.
but my efforts have remained fruitless.
