  Ex-jw Fifth interviews Bethelite from 1975. Well worth watching!

  by Diogenesister in

  another great interview by fifth here.

  this lady was at bethel in 1975 and reminisces that many women at bethel expressed enormous regret at not having a family.

  it seems that many witnesses back then were aware that watchtower really didn't know what they were talking about when it came to making predictions.. https://youtu.be/7dyooih3fji.

  I'm enjoying your story also. Sounds like I could have been there about the same time as you. I was there 74-76. I worked in the home also as a plumber in the Home Repair Shop. I gladly left when they told us in 76 we could leave if not happy there. We possibly crossed paths as I did some plumbing work in the Laundry. Ernie Watts

  (A Childhood Memory) THE MYSTERY OF THE LOCKED CABINET

  by TerryWalstrom in

  the mystery of the locked cabinet.

  when i was about 10 years old, there was a tall, white handmade cabinet back in one of our storage sheds (a converted chicken house from back in the 30's, when my grandparents raised chickens in the great depression).

  affixed to its door, there was a big padlock on the cabinet.

  When I was probably younger than your 10 years I found a photo of my grandad and a much younger dad both

  dressed in white hooded robes. When I asked about it, they hurried to remove it from my view. They said that it

  was supposed to be secret and that they were no longer involved with that. Recently I mentioned this experience

  to my younger sister and she seemed surprised and had no idea. Makes one wonder what other things we never

  knew about.

  this is a photo of the bethel repair shop taken in 1976. anyone recognize any of these lads from 40 years ago.

  i know it's a long shot, but was wondering how many were still in after all these years.

  i remember a few of them.
