We once had a social gathering with other jws and invited my brother-in-law to attend (not a jw). And we shown this in a publication "Some in the congregation may be inclined to invite worldly acquaintances and unbelieving relatives who have no interest in the truth to social gatherings, thinking that this will encourage them to accept the truth. However, is this wise and in harmony with the Scriptures?
We have been counseled to be cautious in our dealings with men of the nations, unbelievers, and ordinary persons. Why should we have unnecessary social contact with people who still pursue worldly ways and who have not become worshipers of Jehovah?"
The same elder who showed this to me, invited a non-jw husband of a sister to a social gathering he was sponsoring!!!

Jehovah's Witnesses have tried - and failed - to get an advance copy of the Abuse in Care Inquiry's final report into their church.
The Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses Australasia (CCJWA) filed an urgent claim in the High Court in Auckland on 21 June to obtain a copy of the final case study relating to the religious denomination in the inquiry's report, but the claim was dismissed.
It also unsuccessfully sought all relevant underlying documents supporting the case study.

"But Mark McCumber, a local Jehovah's Witness who's known to most people as a professional golfer who won the 1988 Players Championship, said the biggest challenge isn't unfriendly people so much as it's people being too busy to talk.
"We're here to help people build better families and a better relationship with God," he said. "But nowadays it's a challenge to find the time to talk."
Jehovah's Witnesses, who have been around since the 19th century, are probably most well known for their door-to-door evangelism, refusing military service, not celebrating Christmas and declining to say the pledge of allegiance.
But McCumber said their religion is more than that.
"We're all loyal citizens," he said. "Except when it conflicts with our beliefs." https://www.jacksonville.com/story/lifestyle/faith/2012/05/25/jehovahs-witnesses-walk-walk-inviting-guests-3-day-convention/15865935007/

I don't think that Eisenhower was a jw (or Bible Student). His mother was and it is possible that the teachings were discussed in the family. But he was never a formal member, baptized as a jw. I call people like that Jehovah's Witness Bystander. (someone who had family that were jws or associated with jws, but never was baptized; not to be confused with someone who was baptized as a jw and stopped associating)

Kingdom hall cleaning
by Farmer Jim1 inwhat are your memories of hall cleaning?.
i actually enjoyed it on the whole, my dad as the elder always tried to keep it to under one hour but in my later years in a hard-line congregation it was a chore.
the po's wife had a printed list and we had to complete it all before left (or got disapproving looks if we left after an hour).. as well as vacuuming the whole building the lost said you had to dismantle the vacuum and clean and polish all the internal elements.

New World Translation Study Bible: Matthew 21: 31,32 31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said: “The first.” Jesus said to them: “Truly I say to you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going ahead of you into the Kingdom of God. 32 For John came to you in a way of righteousness, but you did not believe him. However, the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him, and even when you saw this, you did not feel regret afterward so as to believe him.
