what do you think about the reduced time of the public talks?.

today is the first day i was able to come out and say something that was on my mind by just replying to some subjects on this forum.

this past weekend, we met a new couple in our campground, and the conversation soon came 'round to the supernatural.

the lady said she has had quite a few supernatural experiences, and that she plays her own home-made version of the ouija board.

my husband was all excited and begged her to play .

The Jehovah's Witness Cult Hires Illegal Immigrants

working in retail management is a never ending adventure.

you never know what is lurking around the next corner.

such was the case about six months ago when my boss asked me to stay over on a sunday night to watch the store while a floor cleaning crew did a strip and wax.. now with my self being a former jehovah's witness, i already knew that a great deal of the jw's owned and operated their own floor cleaning buisnesses, and there was a good chance that the floor crew on that sunday night would more than likely be a jw operation.. when the guys first walked in, i just had a feeling that my hunch was right.

i'll bet it's already been posted and i missed it but if not, i just heard that brooklyn hq is to be sold over concerns for safety following the 9/11 attacks.

the news has come to me through an incredibly loyal jw sister.

i know her, she wouldn't repeat anything like this if she hadn't heard it from the kingdom hall or a circuit overseer.. anything to this?.
