Officially appointed MS, probably not, but do all the duties of an MS, but without any recognition. In the long ago past of the WTS, many congregations were all women. So they would wear head coverings and do the duties except those that required an elder, then one was assigned from another congregation or directly from headquarters, or the equivalent of a circuit overseer back then. -
Clergy Accountability Current Development
by blondie insome how this most important part was cut off and i can't edit it "in 2024, the archdiocese of seattle refused to release documents related to clergy abuse, citing court-upheld exemptions under the charitable trust act.
the case is now on appeal.
however, other religious organizations, including jehovah's witnesses and the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints, also rely on the exemption to shield themselves from accountability in reporting abuse.. "abuse thrives in silence," said mitch melin, a former member of jehovah's witnesses.

Clergy Accountability Report Child Secual Abuse
by blondie inthere a group is fighting in the legal area to make clergy accountable to report child sexual abuse cases https://www.morningstar.com/news/pr-newswire/20250127ph04780/clergy-accountability-coalition-urges-support-as-legislature-renews-battle-over-clergy-reporting-bill-sb-5375-amid-fierce-catholic-pushback "if passed, sb 5375 would align washington with six other states—new hampshire, north carolina, oklahoma, rhode island, texas, and west virginia—that mandate clergy to report knowledge of child abuse, including information disclosed during private religious rites like confession.
washington is one of only five states where clergy are not required to report child abuse under any circumstances.
" for the past three years, the catholic church and catholic state lawmakers have fiercely opposed similar legislation, even as the church remains under investigation by the attorney general's office for clergy abuse and institutional concealment.

Canada exploring changes to tax rules that exempt religious organizations
by Scully inhttps://www.christianpost.com/news/evangelicals-oppose-removal-of-tax-status-in-canadian-proposal.html.
the proposed change will revoke charitable status of canadian churches who have an anti-abortion position, and will not give tax exemptions to organizations whose sole claim is to promote religion, which is the basic claim for all jw related entities in canada.
this will be interesting!.

Vidiot, "would just make ‘em look like a bunch of numbskulls." Too late! The WTS has done that so many times.

jhine, in the early days of the WT publications, prior to 1950, very few if any black people were pictured. Even in Russell's days the conventions were segregated by race, because of the laws in the South (Jim Crow). Gradually the WTS got in step with the times and the laws changed. https://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/quotes/black-skin.php
