  Retirement

  by jehovaxx in

  the difference is now blatantly obvious, older ones who went against direction of the gb and planned for retirement have relatively more comfortable lives.. those who trusted and followed gb direction never got further education or training, pioneered or spent most of their lives knocking on doors for free, making just enough to get by in a part time job.. if you followed direction from the gb then you thought the end was just around the corner so no need to plan for retirement.. now these ones have indeed got old which they were given the impression they never would.

  they are a burden on others.

  the state has to pay for them in their old age.

  Sure glad I never listened to them to quit my job and take on something lesser to knock on doors more often. Here I am at age 76 with a decent pension and Social Security after spending 30 years in a steel mill. Been on pension since 2003 at age 56. Even after that, I worked part time jobs until I was 71. Am I comfortable? I sure as hell am.

  Can Elders Voluntarily Resign?

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  an elder with half a brain (and they must exist 🧐) is going to see the writing on the wall with the way the wt is manoeuvring them into taking the fall over csa cases.

  can an elder in good standing step down with no consequences, official or social?.

  I resigned. I just wrote a note saying that of this (certain date), "I Happydad no longer wish to be an elder." Then handed it to the PO. They tried to discourage me from doing it, but there was no way I would continue as an elder after seeing what actually went on. That was about 1990 or 91. Can't even remember any longer.

  after a previous sale fell through, geico has sold its sprawling woodbury property for $27 million.

  the buyer for the 236,365-square-foot office building on 20 acres at 750 woodbury road is the christian congregation of jehovah’s witnesses.

  The JW.org is getting just as bad as the Scientologists. Buying real estate, building structures. Just about all Scientology buildings are kept in pristine condition, but are empty and devoid of any type of activity.

  Even if Morris would become anti JW, I think he would keep it a secret and stay silent. In that deed to the house, he and his wife have lifetime occupancy and I would think this is only as long as they remain faithful. Unless he has another place to go to, he will keep his mouth shut about the workings of the WT.

  this guy: how embarrassing.it's also sad that when it was being filmed, no one thought to tell him "you don't have to over do it..they'll get the point.."now he lives forever in internet infamy.

  I remember going to Laurel in 1975 or 1976. My daughter who was 5 years old at the time loved seeing the horses in the morning before the sessions. It was at Laurel that we went to a Chinese Restaurant for the first time and where my car was broken into at the motel parking lot.

  I'm still waiting for them to open a "Theme Park" style, condo complex such as Jim and Tammy Baker did and they bilked the sheeples out of millions of dollars. It was called Heritage USA.

  VIN numbers did not exist until 1954.
