  The life of a Circuit or District Overseer

  by LDH in

  2. friends

  although they frequently point to the apostle paual as the 'original circuit overseer," the wbts has set up a system which is nothing like what paul did.. paul was not a burden to any congregation.

  yet, today the cos and dos (at least here in the states) have the following life:.

  car is paid for.

  LDH,
  IMHO I think the current $ arrangement is
  much more cost effective than being stuck
  with fixed overhead/payroll. When I see a
  CO with a very frayed belt, pants, coat etc
  then I know it might be nice to take them
  shopping.

  I do not regularly see CO dressed very fancy
  and with their schedule etc they must be under
  quite a bit of pressure. Also must be very difficult
  to always be dependent on "handouts" no matter
  how graciously given. More pressure.

  The following is a true experience:

  LOL, "but we really need the CO's and DO's said
  an elduh making a sheparding call on me several
  weeks after the 911 attacks. Why within two days
  the 'message' came from Bethel to the DO's then
  to the CO's to the local congregations to get out
  and try to reach the inactive ones in this 'time of
  the end' ". Two Days????? hahahahahahahaha

  What did they use?? the Pony Express???????
  I was ready to puke for sure. Proof that the WTS
  is God's organized organization because they are
  so organized that they were able to mobilize the
  troops in only two days, wow what an organization.

  Like what about using secret decoder rings or such,
  HHmmmmm?? maybe try e-mail??? no can't use
  that instrument of the Devil. Wait a minute we have
  a web site, maybe we could hide the secret code
  and preaching instructions in a picture of the new
  system!!! hahahahha puke hahahah puke hahaha

  i think i am losing it, as if i ever had it

  cheers to all,

  so was it just me or are the architectual designs of kingdom halls absolutely bland and uninspiring?.

  i suppose it just like the pictures in the mags middle of the road and all that.. if there was a new system and the watchtower society had control on thing i wonder if they would insist on standardised designs .. 3 or 4 designs for each country to chose from.. if you think that is far fetched that is exactly the policy they have today for kingdom hall design.

  there are several predesigned stadardised halls to chose from.

  I remember hearingand reading about that.
  Was that in the late 70's or maybe early 80's?

  I wondered at the time "Where was Jah's
  protection then?".

  If the "new system" TM is to be a return
  to the "perfect" garden of Eden then why
  would we even need buildings?

  Certainly we will NOT need clothes either!!!
  I love to run that one by the sisters!! hehe

  The more bland the better. The WTS seems to want
  to be in stealth mode so as not to draw too much flack
  for their Crap. Yet wants to draw in as many members
  as possible.

  What ever happened to "advertise, advertise advertise".
  hahahahahaha

  Even GWB has hired a Madison Ave Guru to "Sell"
  the war effort.

  Hiya Troubled,
  I hope you are not so troubled today
  and that you have a peaceful day.

  S-car is correct but to add to the
  thought in Acts20:20 there is only
  one occurance if the word "house"
  no matter the translation. Earlier
  when admonishing "ones" not to
  go house to house there are two
  occurances of the word . hhmmm?

  Cheers,

  hi folks, today i grabbed my favorite weekly newspaper, citypages to read over lunch.

  the cover story is about a self-help seminar offered by a group called vistar.

  as i started to read, i realized this was very similar (in fact everything was the same except the name of the group!
