I voted # 2 for you.
I'm glad they showed them, yes she will look good in #2. Keep us posted each week so we can vote since you know her and her likes, we can maybe help get her dream wedding. Not that a free wedding isn't a dream wedding. Congrats to your friends. Are you invited?
i am not posting this to justify my actions, i am doing so for the benifit of any witnesses who are unsure about there feelings toward the "truth".
i was a reguler pioneer for about 8 yrs, back when it was 100 hours a month, befor thet i did a couple of yrs as a vacation pioneer, they later changed the name to auxilery pioneer, and during the following 20 yrs i had a few intermitant spells as an auxilery when i had time to.
during my pioneer years i have given talks at circuit assemblies and had assignments at district assemblies .
Welcome to the board Londoner, very glad you found us.
I think you will do alot of healing here. Don't beat yourself up toooo much. You did the best you could with what you knew, now you know better. Please don't give them one more minute of the life you have left. Use it to make you happy going forward, not to pay them back or punish yourself for being mislead. You did not lose out on your life, you did not waste it. You lived it the way you wanted to at the time, you lived it the way you saw fit. Live it now without petty made up guilt by them. You are doing nothing wrong by leaving I think for everyone that leaves the cult God sits up there giving the thumbs up and a hearty "Alllllll Riiiiiiiiiiight, now go have some fun!"
I was raised in it and couldn't wait to turn 18 to get out. I did however live with a strang guilt for many years. Then I found this place and all the dirty little secrets they never want anyone to find out. NO MORE GUILT here. Don't lose anymore sleep. Enjoy.
i am so terrified!.
#2 daughter came home from college on 12/18 with a violent headache, nausea, neck pain and great fatigue.
we took her to the dr. on the 20 and again on the 21st as she had kept nothing down for 3 days.
Best wishes for a Speedy Recovery Lena! You will do just fine.
(((((Brenda)))))...A special prayer for you and all your pain and stress right now. Take care. We will all be with you tomorrow.
so after staying at a girlfriends house last night, there i was happily cooking eggs and bacon this morning when the doorbell goes.......yep thats right.
being her house is outside the area of my original congregation, i didn't recognise the 2 blokes at the door.
i stood there and engaged in polite conversation for 10 minutes and took the latest magazines.

I thought maybe you converted while you were gone.
The most I would ever say was "Not interested" then when they tried to continue like they know what "Not interested" means more then I do, I just shut the door on them. I got much braver after watching Dateline. The next time two old man came to the door and would not mention they were JW's so finally I out right asked them. They finally said "Yes we are, Witnesses are the only ones that go door to door" (I guess no one has told them about Mormons yet) I said "You and Pedophiles". They looked like they were going to say something else and I just shut the door on them.

It is snowing and windy here right now. You all stay safe up there and keep warm.
for those of you that know my background, you know that my only sibling, a sister (nonjw) disowned me back in the '70s along with my parents when i became a jw.
when i daed myself in '99, i wrote them and apologized for making a terrible mistake, etc and heard nothing.
i just got an email from my sister asking for my address because she wants to write to me, and she signed it "love, your little sis"..
That is great news Sunspot.
You may need to do some explaining to do but at least the door is open to you now. She sounds like she is willing to hear it. She may even start from now! and let the past be the past. Can your parents be far behind? I hope all is well with them and wish a wonderful outcome for all of you. Keep us posted.
e-watchman has sent over 5000 letters to congregations in the u.s informing them of the ngo debacle and a similar one to 101 branches around the world.
and according to his guestbook post he has signed his real name to the letters!
great work and great news!
PRESSINGFORWARD,
But I do know that Jehovah acts quickly against any who threatens is people whither the source be from men or from demons he is a God of action.
If this statement is true, then why when "HIS" people in "HIS" congregation are having trouble and pain from "men", the answer is to "WAIT" on Jehovah? Seems to me everyone spends alot of time waiting, waiting and more waiting. Just wondering.
